I built this thing as a learning experience.

Jeremy Ashkenas then proposed to make it open source as an example app so that people could learn from it too. I finally had a chance to contribute to open source (but I did not know it would be a significant contribution)

I'm just glad it's been picked up by so many frameworks along the way. I think this is in big part due to the fact that it had just the right amount of simplicity / complexity and is perhaps one of the most basic use case for a framework like that. The new "Hello World" first-timer experience.

It's super work and a great Hello World+ or maybe a "Hello Solar System" example. :)
