It'd be really cool if the title would tell us what the project is, not that it hit 1.0.0. I don't care about the version particularly, but I might care about it if I know what it does...

I added a micro-definition in the title. Here's the full description : continuous javascript integration using JSLint, Google Compiler and Node.js .

I don't think I'd find this that useful. Coffeescript already has jslint support, and I'd only want to do minification right before deployment since minified JS is harder to debug.

ready.js won't overwrite your javascript, that would be stupid, it compiles your javascript in another folder. When you're in dev, you simply link to your uncompiled js. When in prod, you link to your compiled js.

My point was there's no incentive to have your js be compiled continuously. (I already have a deploy script, adding minification to that wouldn't be hard.)

Bravo! Fantastic project. Keep it coming!

Any plans to be the Hudson of the node world?

I can't seem to get this through npm. Has it been published?
Re:My first 'successful' open-source project (js continuous ... by dan_sim on Saturday January 15, 2011 @02:00PM (#2107522)
yes, it's available with `npm install ready`

How is ready.js a first successful project? Are you defining 'first' in a nonstandard way or 'successful' has a special meaning?

"first 'successful'" means that it's my first project used in production by other developers. For me, it's enough to consider it 'successful' (with the quotes).

I must have misread the title first time around (unless it changed). Did not see word 'my' there on first reading.
