REPL drift #10

Open psychogenic opened 4 months ago

psychogenic commented 4 months ago

In current system, uncertain having the REPL in the commander is a good idea: either because the commander isn't using the SDK or because of some kind of context/thread thing, moving back and forth between REPL and commander tabs causes each to have different ideas of what's going on. For instance, go to the REPL, enable a project, then use the commander to switch to another--the chip is in the latter, but only the last interacting tab is in sync with the world.

This might cause weirdness down the line.

Yeah, the REPL is just an experiment - an alternative would be to have a separate mode / app for the REPL.

I suspect that keeping the SDK in sync with the UI will take a considerable amount of work, especially maintaining this connection down the line.
