I'd been planning on releasing it together with a Dockerfile so that people could easily run it locally in an isolated container. It turned out to be a bit more complex than I had anticipated so Docker support will come later. But I think that could be a viable model for locally-installable web apps in the future.

Btw, help with the Dockerfile would be appreciated:

Already dockerized!

I definitely second this. As we move towards multiple devices with predominantly flash storage, the device should be responsible for serving the content rather than storing it. The more we can move towards these types of apps, the better.

Something like https://github.com/rogerwang/node-webkit?

there is if we can agree on a base tech (node.js for example), an app store model, and the environment is sandboxed. this would let people produce apps that would work everywhere - from raspberry pis to pcs to macs.

also sadly, some sort of drm should probably exist.
