If anyone is interested in seeing the progress that has been made in 
this project so far, but doesn't want to go to the trouble of 
downloading the source code and building it with npm, they could look at 
the pages I have uploaded to

http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/gsoc-2017-js-example/kawa/

Some of the features implemented so far:

* Navigation with the keypresses n, p, u, ], [, >, and <.
* Index search with the key i. Type i and then a box pops up asking for 
the index entry you want.
* On pages with a menu of sub-nodes, you can follow a menu entry using 
the m key.
