There are interesting ideas in this project.

I would love instantly dig into any software component. I can do that with website: I can right-click on button and click "Inspect" and I'm very close to discover what code executes. Imagine the entire computing platform built this way. Few navigations and you are reading TCP/IP code. Click here and there and you are inspecting USB packet from your mouse.

Also live code update is so rare, yet so useful. Set breakpoint on that line, stop there. Add some code and it'll be executed immediately.

Java invented Javadocs, which is awesome. I can read almost 0 documentation on some simple library yet I can use it with autocomplete. JavaScript isn't quite there yet, but it could be.

There's a lot of improvements to be made in current software stack.
