[feature] denode start #4

Closed knownasilya closed 8 years ago

Would love to see denode start be a thing, kind of like npm start but it would just use the main property in the package.json.

This could also fix the issue where it's almost indistinguishable which app is being run, since all of the devtools windows say something like:

So the name property from the package.json and the file name from main property could be used together: my-project: index.js

If you want denode to use the main property of a package, you could just do denode ./

You are right about the title, it should be fixed, maybe by adding a virtual file system layer and then visiting the main file there instead of file://, should be pretty easy

Might be nice to document denode ..

I would be happy to accept a PR for this :)

It looks like this now, it scans ./package.json for a name and fallback to DeNode
