A catalog of open source ideas I'd like to see implemented (but haven't yet had time to explore myself)
More thoughts here
Distributed Streaming CI System, with a focus on the types of tasks normally achieved by config files in systems like Travis.
This comes from a frustration with not easily being able to implement parrallel build dependencies simply across a single machine or cluster.
The idea would be to define a similar API to gulp, with something akin to gulp/vinyl (encapsulating assets running through the build process). The API would allow for parrallel dependent build tasks (single machine or cross cluster, like kubernetes).
SystemJS Config Generator to allow loading of node_modules (implementation here)
Now that yarn provides deterministic installs, we can leverage this to generate config files for SystemJS (providing an alternative to JSPM). JSPM is an amazing project, but I feel this project could provide a better onboarding process then asking developers to introduce a new package manager.
Similar to Leiningen for Clojure, that would provide mechanisms to:
- initialize a project
- add dependencies
- provide a repl
- build your code
- handle development experience in the browser (ie. hot-reloading, syntax errors, etc.) [similar to lein-figwheel]
Perhaps Yarn JS will fill this gap?
A general purpose 'IDE engine' that runs as a daemon, exposing a remote API (tcp socket, unix socket) allowing for code analysis, intelli-sense, syntax highlighting, etc. This would allow IDE/editor vendor's to collaborate on IDE tooling, and for IDE's and editors to focus on the rest of the developer facing interface.
Then (editors/IDE)'s like, VIM, emacs, netbeans, atom, VS Studio could provide the frontend and hook into the analysis provided by this tool or set of protocols.
