debugging server side amber-node apps

Hey there,

question...

how do you guys debug amber-node apps running at the server side?

do you use node inspector?

http://howtonode.org/debugging-with-node-inspector

I'm playing a bit with making a server-side amber app and it's all pretty much okay until you need a feedback loop. Right now to get feedback I have to:

1. code in the IDE

2. save methods

3. commit changed packages

4. go to console and make a new version of the server.js I'm developing

5. restart the running node

Did anyone here find something better than that?

Hi!

I'm working on a new IDE that could work remotely, addressing this issue
as well as some others :)

Now it's not ready, it needs quite some work, but we'll get there :)

PS: if someone wants to give a hand..
