I would go into more technical details, if you have them, about how things will be implemented. Particularly how the pyodide will work and any challenges there.
Something I would like to know more about is what adding a new feature would look like on the technical side. How hard would it be for someone not familiar with the code? Just how much of that will require writing Javascript vs. writing something in Python? Ideally as much will be in Python as possible, as that is the easiest for SymPy developers to work with, and it also makes it easiest to interface directly with SymPy. Also any features that make sense to be in SymPy itself should go in SymPy itself. Getting the design for modularity right is more important than actually adding lots of features. If we have that, then adding new features will be straightforward.
