Fixed the $HOME directory dependency issue! Thanks again for the feedback.

Knockout, AngularJS, NodeJS, NPM, MongoDB, Redis, Google Analytics, Github, AWS, ConcussionJS

What do you think about MomentumJS? I have that domain registered, too.

I suspect many others feel the same way.. I'll add this as an issue on https://github.com/concussionjs/concussionjs-core/issues

Great feedback, and agreed on both fronts! I added Redis to the mix because it has support for a really nice rate limiter pattern that's simple to implement, but its probably overkill for what people want when they deploy locally for experimentation or to contribute to ConcussionJS. I should probably have a production fork of concussionjs-proxy for the short term with the rate limiter, and a master fork built exclusively on mongo.

RE the built in dependencies to the $HOME directory, I agree that it's a weakness of the install scripts. I'll add this as an issue at https://github.com/concussionjs/concussionjs-core/issues.

BTW, there is a command-line tool that I've yet to document that you might find handy. It supports:

$ cjs app --create YOUR_APP_NAME $ cjs app --start YOUR_APP_NAME $ cjs app --stop YOUR_APP_NAME $ cjs app --restart YOUR_APP_NAME

You can see the documentation by typing: $ cjs

--create also supports a --template argument (e.g., cjs app --create YOUR_APP_NAME --template YOUR_TEMPLATE_NAME) which copies the contents of the specified folder with the matching name in concussionjs-core/app_template.

Behind the scenes the command line uses a cool util called mon (https://github.com/visionmedia/mon), a super lightweight version of Monit, to keep the nodejs process running for the app specified (e.g., monitoring the process and restarting as necessary).

Thanks everyone for checking out the site. Would be great to get your perspectives on any of the following:(i) Do you think I should add a custom ConcussionJS sign up/login, or stick with Google/Facebook authentication?, (ii) what kind of projects would you use something like this for, (iii) what additional features would you like to see?
