Description
This issue will mostly serve as a thread that other can contribute to with some ideas for future functionality with the CircuitPython Code Editor. Here's an initial list I came up with based on taking a look at https://python.microbit.org/v/beta:
- Some code snippets which could be cool. For snippets, perhaps either we could make use of Read The Docs or include some code snippets in the repository of the library and have some kind of interface where it grabs the code snippets we have there
- We could also possibly use Read The Docs to display some integrated documentation
- The tricky part would be having it know which docs went with specific library functions
- Maybe we could do something like Pyleap and load code from a learn guide in the future, though the details would need to be worked out.
- Adding some tabs and just displaying the active document in the serial terminal and editor
- This would also be a bit tricky with juggling and transferring between URLs, but not impossible
- Adding additional language support
- Font sizing is a great idea
- Perhaps some color themes for people who don’t like the dark look of the editor
- Adding something like CircUp to the Editor as well like has been discussed in various places
- Deployment to Devices has been discussed
- Perhaps adding some kind of Self Signed Certificate generator may be an option along with deployment so we can do HTTPs for Web Workflow.
Feel free to contribute your own ideas.
