https://github.com/dannycoates/node-inspector # debug javascript running in node using the webkit debugger (an actual port of the webkit debugger code, rewritten as a standalone web page which communicates with node -- over websockets?)

CSA wishlist: a 'console' that runs in the browser which lets you execute 'console-mode' javascript tools, with standard unixy stdin/stdout/pipe goodness. ie, "js$ hello-world.js | wc.js > output.txt"

Promises:

• http://wiki.commonjs.org/wiki/Promises/A
• http://api.jquery.com/category/deferred-object/
• https://github.com/kriskowal/q
• http://git.gnome.org/browse/gjs/tree/modules/promise.js

There seems to be momentum behind the "Promises/A" syntax (as opposed to the gjs API which I wrote for litl).

Parsers:

• http://jsshaper.org/ # uses "Narcissus" JS parser
• https://github.com/cscott/jsshaper # CScott's fork of the above, w/ generators and iterators
• https://developer.mozilla.org/en/SpiderMonkey/Parser_API # Parse javascript from browser (Firefox only)
• http://www.esprima.org/demo/parse.html
