3cp··on Show HN: A lightweight online IDE to write JavaScript SPA in you GitHub gists
To be honest, I used to call it gist-code then I renamed it halfway into it. I guess that was a better name after all :D

Service Worker is not available in Firefox private window. Try a normal Firefox window.

Thx! the name "dumber" was for the bundler which is one year older than this dumber-gist. I understand it's a debatable name but I think I will keep it :-)

The name was picked out of frustration on many JS tools who constantly remind me how stupid I am. I just want a JS bundler dumber than me, so that I can take control of it.

I am fine if my bundler didn't become popular. That is the most likely outcome anyway. I had lots of fun making my tools, that's rewarding enough. :-)

Very easy to test your idea in Aurelia, Aurelia 2, Inferno, Preact, React, Svelte, and Vue 2.

* Save code in your own GitHub gists, public or private.

* Almost no backend. Backend is only for GitHub OAuth and centralised trace cache for performance.

* Bundler runs purely in browser.

* Built with Aurelia. Less than 10k LOC (js, html, scss) so far. https://github.com/dumberjs/dumber-gist

* Runs on a tiny DigitalOcean $5/mth box. With a CloudFlare free plan to cache static resources.

It's named Dumber Gist, as it runs on a new bundler called dumber https://dumber.js.org (a successor of aurelia-cli built-in bundler).
