We built a version of this which goes far further.

- Monaco (embedded VScode inside the target app/platform)

- Typescript

- NPM modules

- Linting/autocomplete including custom fields/objects, so you basically know it's going to work before you even run it

- breakpoint debugging

- Version control with diff view

- Magic utilities to call the platform's own APIs in an easy typesafe way

The breakpoint debugging provides an amazing experience for the embedding app. It's pretty magic. But because the runtimes like Lambda don't ship the Inspector API we had to create a custom compiler to make it work.

We are actively looking to license this stack to other SaaS looking to build platforms.

If you want a demo leave your email and I'll reach out.
