&#62; You can't get started by running scripts in a shell, or writing AppleScript, or whatever — you get apps from the App Store and that's it.<p>What if you get started by writing HTML and Javascript code into a nice online editor - something like Bespin, or like those many different sites where you can code in all sorts of languages using a web-based front-end - and you get to publish your results to a web page and see the results immediately?<p>Does it get any easier than that?<p>Code - publish - save to home screen - "hey dad, check out this application I just made!"
