Not every dynamic website which runs on Sideboard will necessarily want to run on websockets. This may stop being true after we address #33 but for now a high-traffic website wouldn't be able to use websockets.
So it would be nice to include a Javascript library for consuming exposed Sideboard services over JSONRPC. I believe this would be best specifically as an Angular service, for the reasons I outlined at https://github.com/appliedsec/sideboard/issues/28#issuecomment-39144846 plus I think a promise API is way nicer than a callback API. (Come to think of it, perhaps there should be a promise-based API for SocketManager.call() - EDIT: I actually did this, and it will be documented as part of #28.)
This is not super high-priority at the moment, but it is something I will definitely want if/when I eventually refactored the MAGFest prereg system to be an Angular app.
