I saw this on reddit yesterday and it is definitely intriguing..

However, I'm still trying to understand what the actual real-world use-case is for this tool. Can any of you enlighten me?

Also, zero unit tests makes me sad. The end product and codebase can be so much better when you start with a little testing.




1. Security is a huge one. One of the saved queries is checking for processes running that don't have the original binary still on disk. etc. Being able to query stuff like that on demand is powerful. It also has a lot of ops related wins.

2. Well, agree but when you're solo and doing it for fun.. getting it working is half the battle. I know my expectations for the app now and that makes it much easier to write meaningful tests. I must have redid the node/server setup 3 times.. writing tests for failed implementation just sounds like a poor use of time. Also, the project is 0.1.1.. thats super beta man.. give it time.
