That's because it is written in JavaScript and you need a way to interpret JS on your machine. I suppose it should be possible to build a self contained executable, similarly with what node-webki…

What I like about the project is that it is written in JavaScript and open source. But this: a Sublime-like file sidebar You could as well say, a VIM like sidebar if you install the proper pl…

Thanks. I was thinking at compiling a Racket application to iOS or Android in the way RubyMotion compiles Ruby code to iOS. Probably my original question wasn't so clear.

They suggest that you have a problem because this way of thinking questions their way of life. You can always keep your controversial opinions to your self or share them with a group of close friends…

Nice, I used to use browsers extensions to achieve the same thing. Your solution is better.
