CometJS is simple software development for building desktop applications.

It can specialize in creating applications, as well as previewing them in a browser window. This practically sets it apart from the other popular JS frameworks. Comet sends your app to a server (through the desktop) in a intuitive window, on Windows, Mac, or Linux. From there, your app is public to share with the world from the desktop as if it were a platform made on ice!

To test if your app works, use: comet test <app>

CometJS is simply front-end desktop development, user interaction in all (Comet's UI), and precise back-end desktop development, with plugins and apis working coherently in pure javascript in order to keep the easy workflow. With the back-end desktop development, CometJS is running on Chromium, with stable-integrated Firefox implementations. Running on Gecko makes it unique, creating a beautiful layout, as well as a good build system.

And the best parts of all are:

• You can run apps in Javascript.
• You can deploy them on a running Javascript client-side foundation.
• All the binaries you need are in one place.

Npm install CometJS and get started, but be sure you also install it's cli as well.

# npm install Comet locally or globally to your PATH
npm install comet-dev
# install the cli and ices
npm install comet-cli
npm install ices

# Example for creating an app
comet new my-app
cd my-app
comet serve my-app.comet.com
