That looks interesting, a JavaScript framework for building network
applications.  It seems that JavaScript is being used for more and more things
these days.  :)  It reminds me of how JavaScript is one of the languages
supported to build Windows 8 Metro applications..

And in this context, I'm assuming JRE means something other than Java Runtime
Environment?  That's the first thing I thought when you said JRE, but Java is a
different language entirely..

It does look interesting.  I've made a bookmark to it so I can check it out
later. :)
