It's worth noting that Stopify itself isn't an editor or IDE as the title suggests.

Stopify is a JavaScript -> JavaScript compiler, implemented as a Babel transform, that enables pausing and restarting control operators for JavaScript programs.

A lot of the comments note the rich history of systems for debugging and execution control. Stopify's goal is to enable those kinds of systems, efficiently, while constrained by the browser's execution model.

WOW. I was not interested at all in this the way that the title implied but now that you describe what it actually does, this does indeed look useful.

The first line of the description should probably be scrapped. The interesting bit about this is not at all the fact there is an editor. Maybe it should be mentioned as a footnote but not as the lead-in.

Yep. We're fixing that now.

Fixed and added a little FAQ. :)
