As I've said before, I'm ignorant and incompetent at web page authoring, 
and have no need or desire to learn for the foreseeable future.   

If I wanted some kind of "web interface" then I'd be motivated to learn, 
but my IOT system goal would be to have no user interface or configuration 
of any kind beyond the initial installation/setup.   OTOH node-red let me 
hack up a quick web interface to monitor the system status using a 
test/debug monitor program I'd written very early on with the only code 
change being adding a fflush(stdout) that I'd forgotten (and didn't matter 
when it was running in an xterm).  It was a neat trick and gave me a better 
appreciation for node-red, but ultimately is of no  real use beyond perhaps 
planting some seeds for future directions.

I think the "bonescript interactive guide" is a pretty neat trick and I 
would be studying it if I wanted some kind of web interface to trigger 
events or adjust parameters.  Cloud9 seems pretty solid (albeit slow), its 
just some of the examples don't work because newer kernels seem to break 
bonescript.  I'm sure any of the Python examples that use PWM would be 
broken as well, but I've not been looking at them.

My assumption is that beagleboard.org ultimately would like this stuff to 
work or it wouldn't be there.  While I've had little interest in this 
"newbie" stuff until recently, and certainly haven't tried all the images, 
my recollection is that this stuff hasn't been right since Angstrom was 
current.   If this assumption is wrong or its not helpful, I'll shut up 
about it.
