But would my project Chocolate interest you if its source code was written directly in javascript?

  Your project is interesting, and you put a great deal of work into it and it is pretty much amazing. I generally don't care about what language an app I use was written in. What has gotten under my skin is the naming of things that are not JavaScript yet still get a .js extension. I'm actually sorry that all of your hard work is buried under a discussion about the .js extension. I just felt the need to vent as it keeps happening. Your demo is very impressive.

    I wonder if the .js extension should be dropped from names. 'Chocolate' would probably be a better name than 'chocolatejs'

      It's the standard naming for JavaScript libraries, just like C libraries tend to be named libfoo

    Thank you. Chocolate is the project name, but I had to add something at the end to create a web site and a visible github project. So js was the shortest and closest meaningfull suffix that came to my mind.

      For what it's worth there's already Chocolat.app which is a text editor for Macs. :/
