CoffeeScript web console, useful for quick experimentation, debugging, presentations (for live coding) and workshops.
Coffeeconsole can be injected in any web page, using a bookmarklet.
- Remote device debugging using "listen" command
- Resizable font (yep, biggest issue with Firebug in workshops)
- Autocomplete in WebKit desktop browsers
- shift + up/down for bigger console
- Save history (based on session)
- Add support for loading in a DOM
- Permalink to individual executions
The server-side code is necessary only for the remote debugging feature.
This requires that you install node.js. Once installed,
download this project (or clone it using git)
and inside the new coffeeconsole directory run:
npm install
This will install the dependancies (in particular 1.8.x version of connect.js).
Once installed, run (on port 80):
node server.js
Or to run on a specific port (like 8080):
node server.js 8080
Then check your own ip address of the machine it's running on (using ipconfig
for windows or ifconfig for mac and linux). Then on the mobile phone, just
visit that IP address and port you're running coffeeconsole on (this example is
from jsconsole, but should work equivalently for coffeeconsole)
