Scaling the REPL Experience

No, I mean when the program that changes its behaviour as you type code. Like so: https://elm-lang.org/blog/interactive-programming And for observing behaviour I mean something like this: - http://worrydream.com/LearnableProgramming/ - link to this video - http://www.chris-granger.com/2014/03/27/toward-a-better-programming/ Speaking of debuggers, the direct one are probably not even worth to be implemented. Reverse debugging, like in rr, is though useful.

It's different to what you're talking about, but I found this very interesting anyway, "Lamdu"... * link to this video * link to this video One of the annoying things about visual/node based programming is that you can't work as quickly as you can with text-based code. Especially when it comes to: * copy and pasting multiple lines of code * ...including leaving the code in a broken/invalid state, temporarily while you shift things around (usually node-based stuff doesn't allow this flexibility, they typically enforce that everything is connected in a valid way at all times) * commenting/uncommenting things out So I think things like "Lamdu" where it's a kinda hybrid text + GUI interface are interesting. I…

Very cool! This is triply interesting to me because I recently edited a screencast based video, have also worked on a GUI framework in Haskell, and am planning to create a video editor one day too! Btw Final Cut Pro, which I used, has something similar to your sequences but perhaps not as good for our use case. Final Cut supports "Compound Clips" which are timelines inside your timeline (which can recursively contain more compound clips). The annoying thing though is that when their contents get longer you also need to change the length of the compound clip in the outer timeline..

Not really an answer to anything you're asking. Just another project that you might find interesting to look at (you might have already?)... * http://www.lamdu.org/ * https://github.com/lamdu/lamdu * link to this video * link to this video

I've watched the Komposition video and Haskell at Work #4 (nice video btw) to see if Komposition supports the features I've needed in my own video, where I've used a bunch of effects, from moving zooms (aka "Ken Burns Effect") to the overlaid imaginary WhatsApp chat with Mr. REPL at 6:14. Is there support for various effects in Komposition? If not, I'll probably still give it a try if I happen to make a more direct screen-cast style video :)
