Managing account details inside of the RPC Manager became a bit convulted and difficult to follow due to any web3 requests inside of an `RpcModifier` communicating over the proxy and therefore to other `RpcModifier`’s or itself. It also created cases where node accounts were duplicated by way of running the `eth_accounts` modifier multiple times (the first time getting accounts from the node and subsequent times getting accounts from the modified `eth_accounts` response. This has been simplified by having the entry point of the `rpc-manager` (`index.js`) talk directly to the node via `web3`. This allowed account/nodeAccount management to also be handled by the entry point, removing the need for each individual `RpcModifier` from having to handle these account details. The result is a much more simplified and and much easier to maintain code for RPC Manager. The cases for which accounts can be modified (via `personal_newAccount` RPC call, and via test configuration change) are now handled in one place (the entry point) and propagated to the each `RpcModifier`. Add `blockchain:started` command to request when the blockchain has been started. In this case, this is needed so that we know when we can create a direct connection to the node, instead of the proxy (as is the case in almost all other modules). Extend action timeout when in debug mode. 1. These changs have made the `RpcModifier` base class essentially useless, however, it has been kept in place because it will be used for future DRY improvements to the `rpc-manager`. 2. These changes have been tested with the following DApps: - Demo - Test DApp - Contracts test DApp - Teller |

What is Embark
Embark is a framework that allows you to easily develop and deploy Decentralized Applications (DApps).
A Decentralized Application is a serverless html5 application that uses one or more decentralized technologies.
Embark currently integrates with EVM blockchains (Ethereum), Decentralized Storages (IPFS), and Decentralized communication platforms (Whisper and Orbit). Swarm is supported for deployment.
With Embark you can:
Blockchain (Ethereum)
- Automatically deploy contracts and make them available in your JS code. Embark watches for changes, and if you update a contract, Embark will automatically redeploy the contracts (if needed) and the dapp.
- Contracts are available in JS with Promises.
- Do Test Driven Development with Contracts using Javascript.
- Keep track of deployed contracts; deploy only when truly needed.
- Manage different chains (e.g testnet, private net, livenet)
- Easily manage complex systems of interdependent contracts.
Decentralized Storage (IPFS, Swarm)
- Easily Store & Retrieve Data on the DApp through EmbarkJS. Including uploading and retrieving files.
- Deploy the full application to IPFS or Swarm.
- Import and deploy contracts hosted on Swarm.
Decentralized Communication (Whisper, Orbit)
- Easily send/receive messages through channels in P2P through Whisper or Orbit.
Web Technologies
- Integrate with any web technology including React, Foundation, etc..
- Use any build pipeline or tool you wish, including grunt, gulp and webpack.
