Neat —- Scrappy looks like a lovely prototype! As the creators say in their writeup, it fits nicely into the lineage of HyperCard-style “media with optional scripting” editors, which provide a gentle slope into programming.

In the section on dynamic documents towards the end of our essay, we show several of our lab’s own takes on this category of tool, including an example of integrating AI as an optional layer over a live programmable document.

I need an interactive tool for programming such (or I need to buckle down and implement the METAFONT algorithm in my current project).

Tove2d editor demo?
Interesting, trying to research and look into that now --- good starting link and suggestion for approach?
