Hosted Apps DNA

This is 61A’s stateful app hosting service, a wrapper around @itsvs’s dna tool.

This app has no local setup, as it is not meant to be run locally. Most of the code here is just RPC wrappers, which haven’t been documented yet, so feel free to peruse through the code and reference the dna docs if you want to understand this app better.

The buildserver deploy script for this app is available here.
