Interactive computing/sandboxes everywhere (category idea)
Category Label: TBD | Documentation | Issue list
## Description
The Web IDE has (will have) client side evaluation (live previews, javascript console) and server side evaluation (live previews, and a web terminal). These are important capabilities of an integrated development environment because they make the development process interactive. An IDE is typically foccussed on productivity and completing a task, but the interactive properties of exploring and testing code are valuable in other situations too:
- sharing a proposed tweak to a UI component in a issue comment, rather than look at a screenshot, why not have an embedded preview of the UI component rendered using Codesandbox?
- sharing a small Javscript function in a merge request discussion, rather than just a static code block, why not make it possible to actually evaluate and run the function in a javascript console so that you can see how it works?
- sharing a snippet that contains a small app, rather than look at source code, why not open the running app as the primary interface?
