Running lint on the editor contents would be a nice feature. A new button that executes nodelint.js would be a good start.

Start and stop should become a single link or the selected one should hide itself and show the other. Aferwards we should use a play/stop button for this and a spinning icon when the program is running.

Implement the initial design for a web app UI.

Since skywriter doesn't support IE and mobile safari it would be nice to use codemirror for these user agents.

Since node-inspector doesn't support anything but chrome, we should display a notification message when user.agent != chrome

We could use a WebSocket connection (through socket.io) to update the client console with the executed program's output as we receive it.

Launching node in a chroot jail would guard against programming mistakes.

Use RESTful resources and methods for better extensibility.

We need a file list widget at the very least.

u can integrate it with waterbearlang
search "waterbearlang" in github ;-)

Currently the debug handler uses the easy way to invoke node-inspector. Unfortunately this doesn't allow access to the child process that hosts the debugged program. We should change the code to use that and switch from exec to spawn, too.

Having a module list widget that would let the user select and require() modules would be helpful.

Killing the debugger process after a timeout doesn't make sense in a non-hosted scenario. The same holds for timeout in the non-debugger execution as well.
