Very nice and seamless UI! I hope to use this sometime soon. Like other mention, closer repo access would be awesome (I suppose you'll have to authenticate with GitHub for that?). Support for BitBucket would be nice, as well.

Nice project! How about an option to text chat? Or did I miss it? Shared it: http://tuxdiary.com/2014/09/23/pairjam/

Thanks for sharing. No text chat at the moment

Developer here. Would love to hear your feedback, especially on what could be improved.

Tweet @neerajwahi if you'd like someone to try it out with.

Very nice! I would love to see something like this that compiles and gives the output in realtime, even if it is only done on the client. Would be very handy for tech-screens.

Thanks! That's a great suggestion, I've been looking into using docker containers to create an isolated runtime environment.

Very cool. Just small thing, add a New File button. Also, would be nice if we can have checkpoints which we can rollback on later.

Thanks for the suggestions - agreed, it would be nice to see version history (and not too hard to add, the server already maintains the history for the operational transformation algorithm)

Very cool. Worked like a charm. And the best thing in demo: I don't have to register anywhere to try it.

This is really cool. Are you planning to support closed repos?

Thanks! No immediate plans for closed repos, but that's definitely something on the radar
