Such a great tool - simple to learn, but powerful to run any Node app.
However, after playing around with the closed beta for a while, I've struggled to find a good use case. The one rare case is when a bug in some Node-stack application is simple enough to reproduce and share by copying the relevant bits of code into HyperDev.
Also seems like they're having scaling issues from HN traffic already?
Some situations where HyperDev really shines for us have been 2-4 people collaborating on apps in a Hackathon like setting. Being able to all get started on the same app right away and see the changes live is great. It lets us skip all the hassle of getting everyone's individual environment set up just right, instead we get to hop directly into coding.
We've had a couple blips with the launch but so far things are going strong (fingers crossed)
