This is just a pet peeve of mine. I don't understand why you ask "Are you sure you want to leave this page" when I click back, or try to close the tab. I am sure - that's why I tried to leave.

Actually, it's a Backbone.js application. It uses the browserify library to load other modules, which is what the "require('blah')" bits are. this confused me too when I first read it. so essentially you can run this on a static file server like GH pages.

As far as I remember in order to get the GitHub authentication piece working you need to use an external app simply for the authentication with GitHub. DevelopmentSeed also wrote an app for this called gatekeeper (I think) which I believe is a node.js application.

It could be a hardware issue too. My graphics card doesn't support it, even though my browser should.
