• Create server & client side (js) library for .on('event', func action(...)) / .emit('event')... (like socket.io but supports only websocket).
• Find and provide support for the most stable template engine and be able to change it via the configuration, keep html/templates support.
• Extend, test and publish to the public the Iris' cmd.

I am a student at the University of Central Macedonia. Nowadays I spend all my time in the construction of Iris, therefore I have no income value. I cannot support this project alone.
