Components not an IDE?

[Bob Sneidar]

I'm a Livecoder precicely because I didn't want to get involved in high level programming like C variants or java. I don't know what CMS is. I'm not entirely sure of what an "opinionated IDE" is. I am absolutely sure I do not know what NPM or Express is.

I think we have an issue with the way we think of LiveCode and in
particular the IDE. We picture it as a CMS or an opinionated IDE. How about
thinking of it like a minimal core engine (or set of engines), and
installable components that can provide authoring and editing capabilities
if needed?

More like Node + Node Package Manager (npm) + Express? So we would have the
engines - JavaScript, and various platforms, we would have a package
manager, and maybe a good minimal reference app.

npm install livecode
