Great to see this initiative. :-) The structure looks good. One question that comes to mind is whether each “extern” should be a separate SWC, or should all the “externs” be compiled into a single swc.
I’d assume the first way. If that’s the case, the build scripts will likely need to be a little different than the rest of the swcs in the framework. I’d also suggest make compiling externs a different target than the standard build of the main swcs. A full framework build already takes a decent amount of time. If no one else get to this before me, I’ll try to find the time to look into the configs sometime over the next few days. Thanks!
