I want the ability to have something like this integrated with VS code. I want to be able to start typing out a component name, or press a key shortcut to see components... scroll through... select the export format (React). And then see it rendered in a sideview, with my own theming applied. Use nostril inhale and exhale to tweak certain things.. and then of course, hook it up to data by dragging a little arrow from the 'data' buckets on my hud to the component.

- ed_elliott_asc 3y agoAnd Visual Interdev
- blackbear_ 3y agoEven better, I want to pick components from a tool window, move them around and resize them with the mouse and have the code automatically generated for me, if possible well hidden so I don't even have to look at it. Somehow this was standard twentyfive years ago, how could we have regressed so much?
- bluefirebrand 3y agoWe haven't regressed, the code those systems used to generate was a nightmare We're way better off without them
- wild_egg 3y agoNightmare generated code is fine if you never have to look at it. This is like saying we shouldn't use react because of the div soup it spits out. We should be able to have modern tools that don't require spelunking in their output
- darepublic 3y agoI think with the state of llms that we should aim for readable code output. Also react doesn't spit out a div soup, that's totally within the control of the dev
- sifuldotdev 3y agoThe idea seems good. I will play with some VS Code extensions if it's possible to do
