   It's a coincidence I just went through the getting started guide yesterday. It would be nice to have a two-way sync between the simulator diagram and the generated code. I'm also curious how Winglang handles existing infrastructur

    Perhaps using WASM via something like https://extism.org/ . That would also open it up to building plugins in multiple languages. Tangential to this I've wondered if it's possible or advisable to have a utility to
