Wow, that is a really sharp looking app Niels!  Must have had a
creative developer help with that, or do you have those talents also
:-)

Where does the server side stuff come into play, or isn't it
implemented yet?  I was looking for it but didn't see it.  I am also
liking how these latest js frameworks are allowing and focusing on
configuring "screens" and all we need to do is show/hide them and
occupy them with information.  Soooo much easier than the traditional
CGIDEV2 I grew up on - at least in my opinion.

Exciting times!
