Orion: The web is my development environment

on YouTube ↗20m

" summary

Orion claims the web itself becomes the development environment by composing small web tools into a single flow: a Java server hosts files, the client edits with a fast Ace-like editor, and external tools plug in over window.postMessage to a hidden iframe so formatting (JSBeautifier) and linting (JSLint) run without copy‑paste. Git support shows diffs, staging and commits in the browser, and the architecture separates services so code search or other servers can be swapped in.
