Why is this being promoted as a feature? Of course you wouldn't want to make a copy of GUI framework for each user's project. That's quite a stretch for a per-project config files advertisement.

I would suggest adding "Show HN" tag, and "JS" somewhere in the title.

I'm not sure what you mean by this comment. But I do think that that's a reasonable thing to say.?
