From the dev site, it appears we have a browser-based IDE to look forward to. Should those of us familiar with Cloud Pebble expect a similar experience? Browser-based emulation and deployments to watches? Also, should we expect to see this available before the Ionic is released?
EDIT: aha! https://studio.fitbit.com/ says September

Yes, definitely a spiritual successor, and yes available in September. You do need a watch though - there is no emulation in Fitbit Studio for now.

Kinda disappointing there isn't a browser-based emulation. Makes it hard for those developers who won't have a Ionic device until October at the earliest.

It's possible to at least start mocking up your graphics and layouts with a little bit of effort in JSBin 😉

NiVZ, thanks for the link. Looks promising. Do you know if the jsbin link is from an official Fitbit representative?

No. It's Paul's own. He used the same approach for early testing of ideas with Pebble watchfaces.
Here it gives us a real chance to see what our Ionic solutions could look like. I have been using his JSBin approach to test out new clock faces and it's really helping me.

Found a git repository from Fitbit that looks like code for a watchface. https://github.com/Fitbit/sdk-lcd-clock But without a screenshot or working demo, I can't really say for sure.

@Anthoang As posted above, to see what it would look like, @NiVZ created this:
