Visual Editor `HistoricProvider` #2419

Open Mearman opened 2 weeks ago

Mearman commented 2 weeks ago

When opening a board from a URL e.g. https://breadboard-ai.web.app/?board=https://exadev.github.io/boards/exam-coach.bgl.json. Retain the reference in the visual editor so previously opened boards can be browsed and opened.

We already offer this in the Recent Boards list when you close the board or you open https://breadboard-ai.web.app/ – I'd prefer to not have an ever-growing list of previously opened boards, though, as I think there's a point at which the UX becomes counter-productive.

Ah nice. I hadn't spotted the recent boards section. Though it feels a bit limited compared to handling it like its own provider. You could then allow the user to configure the provider with a max age or number of items, allow items to be deleted, and even fork/copy them to their browser store

Well for that we have the Save As option for folks opening boards they don't have write access to, like the examples or a remote board, and that would allow them to add it to whichever provider they want. I think we should avoid adding another provider here as I don't think it adds enough value for the additional complexity. Happy to be wrong, but I'd like to see things play out a bit first.
