Exactly. the stuff common to all the lessons, like karma.css, jquery.js,
goes in the top-level directory

so  ROOT > js/ , css/ , karmaplatz.html, lessons/ 
        lessons > js/, css/

Does it seems like too much overhead to carry around the karmaplatz? I
figure that most of the time devs will want the karmaplatz to accompany
their lessons.

Yeah. my best solution is just to separate them as  specified before

I want the examples to use the same common js/ and css/ folders as
lessons/ . By default, the links to the examples will appear in
karmaplatz.html  .  I want the paths used in the examples to be the same
ones that can be used by the new user-created lessons   in lessons/  .
Using the same file directory layout makes this easier.  

So, I want the examples to look at root > css/, js/  for their common
files just as the new "lessons" in lessons/ will
