Made a throwaway comment in #158 and now I'm full of ideas. If we had a dedicated Sapper electron app, we could do all sorts of fun things:

  • Creating new projects
  • Upgrading projects (with caveats, of course)
  • Managing multiple projects simultaneously
  • Building/exporting/launching tests
  • Monitoring sapper dev output
  • Monitoring webpack output (with progress events, all the treemaps/treeshaking info/whatever)
  • Monitoring server output
  • Easy server debugging (attach the Chrome debugger inside the Electron app)
  • Probably loads of other stuff that makes sense in a GUI but not in the terminal

There's really no reason we should be tied to the CLI for stuff like this. Useful prior art includes Jarvis and electron-webpack-dashboard.

Closing since https://github.com/sveltejs/sapper-studio is now a thing (albeit desperately in need of some maintenance 😬)
