The simplest previewer would probably be using plasmoidviewer, with temporary installs. So you'd have a 'preview' button of sorts. The user would write code, click the button (or use a hotkey), and we'd do a temporary install and display with plasmoidviewer. This is already in line with what normal IDE's do :P I have no idea at the moment how much more powerful than this can we make the previewer (I don't think pseudo-realtime is easy nor useful enough to justify the effort), and am right now inclined to think that a basic one (like the one above) would work quite well :) About the git timeline I don't personally think it needs to be a very elaborate widget (or in fact even a widget that looks like a timeline). It could just be something list-like that readily reflects order and looks kinda pretty, with points that are readily selectable and that, say, shows information on mouse-over. I think the diff information idea is great though, and shouldn't be too hard to do :P So I was thinking of having a separate interface dedicated to save point browsing, where users can select save points from a list/timeline interface to browse the project files as they were at that save point, with diff-like colour indicators in place. I have incorporated these thoughts (together with some ugly UI mockups :P) into my proposal draft. Please take a look and give me some feedback if you have the time :) The draft is here : http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dvjmcm4_16hjv6txcf Thanks a lot! ---- Lim Yuen Hoe http://yuenhoe.co.cc/
