Problem it solves: I'm trying to work with a bit complex model which takes a while to render. In that case it's nicer to compile on request rather than on every keyboard input. I had lot of "hangs" which requires me to refresh the browser, which required me to copy/paste to a notepad just in case it lost the code on the required refresh. Those were because of refactorings, which cause errors/loops that kind of make sense; if I rename a function fn1 to fn2, but didnt update its usage, the rendering can get stuck.
Thanks for making this app. I like the online version more than the actual app, mostly because of how you can change camera to the object more naturally. I use it to prototype then render in the actual app.
