Hi, in order to get the "Try it now" working someday we need a powerful, easy to handle server side. What we need on the server side at least is NodeJS with the ability to install npm packages and the availability of a Java SDK which is required by Royale.
I know that Eric already offered the usage of his AWS. But unfortunately, it turns out to me that AWS has a deep learning curve and I've not enough time to learn all the things that are needed to get it work. So I was searching for alternatives and found and tested evennode.com [1] The usage is pretty simple, you are able to prepare NodeJS including needed npm packages in just 5 minutes. Files can be deployed via FTP or GitHub. The issue here is that Java support plans starting at 34 EUR / month. Because this is too much I've asked them if they provide plans for OpenSource projects. They told me that they need to create a custom Java package and for this reason, they offer this (Java) option only with higher plans. They also said that there seems to be a licensing problem with Oracle's Java running on their platform due to distribution issues. However, they are willing to help out and ask me "Would you be ok with OpenJDK?". Long story short, does Royale work with OpenJDK?
