This would be really useful if it can be run offline. Much easier to use than writing code, compiling it with -S to produce assembly, then trawling through the assembly to look for the code you're interested in.
It's open source, so you can just clone the source code and run the server locally on your computer. I've been running it like this for a long time :-)
How hard was it to set up for you? Is it a small standalone thing or a beast with complex dependencies? Did you configure it to run everything locally or is it still requesting a web service to compile the programs?

In any real-world, production use cases, I will vastly prefer to "objdump -d" or "objdump -S" the executable image (which is formed from dozens, hundreds or thousands of source files, with specific compiler flags and so on). I'm not going to be feeding these source inputs into some dialog box on a website.
What you might benefit from would be a browser which can parse the output of "objdump --line-number -S <yourexecutable>" and present it in a nicer way.
E.g. all the implicated source files could be identified and loaded into multiple views/tabs, with two-way navigation between those and the disassembly tab.
Idea: massage the "objdump --line-number -S <executable>" output into a vim quickfix list (errors.err file).
Then run vim -q.
The idea would be that all those file:line entries become navigable quickfix items: we can navigate through the quickfix items (thereby browsing the source code), and the assembly is in the quickfix window as context.
If you're interested in the code, put a breakpoint and launch with a debugger. In Visual C++ that literally two keypresses, F9 and F5. As a nice side effect, you can step over the assembly instructions observing how they change registers and memory.
