Tones: It sounds like you are describing the NodeJS FS module, which I will agree is extremely powerful. I made something similar at my GitHub repo at https://github.com/flancast90/finniky-on-node. I would love for TW to use this! The entire project I made was a proof-of-concept for the features I wanted on TW! Feel free to look at my code (server.js will be the nodeJS code you are looking for). TW will need at lot of rewriting for this, obviously. Off the bat, I can see that it would need some sort of http request functionality, or even implement socket.io. I would love to be on a team to work to implement this in TW: I’m currently getting ready to apply for college, and as such trying to build my GitHub.
Tell me your thought about this! Again, I would love to work on adding this, preferably with a team.
