SparkJS: A Javascript library for Spark devices

SparkJS is a library for interacting with your cores and the Spark Cloud. It uses node.js and can run on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux fairly easily. It can also run in the browser without node.js. It's also open source so you can edit, change or even send in pull requests if you want to share!

Getting Started

It's important that you login before executing any command.

Every function returns a promise for you to handle the async result, or you can pass a callback function. (Please note that if a callback function is passed, the function will return null instead of a promise)
