This is interesting. Superficially at least, it reminds me of MAX/MSP or PureData, which are used to create music and other media. For me, it has the same shortcoming: it is very 'mousey', and with MAX/MSP and PureData at least, I grow tired of using them quickly because of this. Basically, I would like to use the keyboard for everything. Still, I respect the work, and I imagine this type of environment could be given a (perhaps VIM-like) mode that could enable keyboard selection and chaining of widgets.
- shurcooL 13y agoI agree, it's becoming too navigation heavy for larger scenarios and code bases. This is a problem I need to address. Right now you can't "pin" things to another layer and have them stay there regardless of how you move the main layer. I think being able to do something like this might be helpful. After that, I'll have to see what else can be done... I'm thinking global fuzzy search to help get around. It is becoming [1] a bit more keyboard-able, and being as open as it is, you could pretty much add any kind of shortcuts to anything you want. That's the whole idea that the user is in full control. Right now that part is probably too inaccessible for most people, but it's my goal to make it friendlier to customize.
