Is it just me, or is LightTable still pretty far from their original promise?

I downloaded the app a few weeks ago, and I never saw anything that gave me realtime feedback on my coding. I admit, I was just playing around with putting in the odd function and variable, but it didn't give me anything submlime text doesn't currently.

As far as the spending ' hours or days working on code before they can make sure it actually works', isn't this solved with TDD?

Did you start an Instarepl? That's where you get the most obvious realtime feedback.
