UI for developpers
TEXTREME by Ash K, Maxim Loboda - Code editor with graphical Fx, memetrooper/TEXTREME Ludipe on Twitter: "I love when I come up with a game concept and I find out it already exists and it looks more awesome than it did in my head. TEXTREME is the text editor you didn't know you needed. https://t.co/FFn3I1K7oz https://t.co/8f12oxq79c" / Twitter
Live coding
Without reload all code and replay all interactions and data inputs
What append for previous registered listeners, timeout|timeintervals, created objects, states, etc.
LOD
Global overview of code

Typography of code
Aka Code color sheme, coding font, typeface for developers
Color and fonts
Comment shouldn't use grey, but more visible color like red, because it's important.
Customizing GitHub Gists: Filters - Palette hue, brihtness, contrast, saturation
Sticky blocks / smart folding (context, label, compound):
Use font size, style and weight to make differences and differents glyphs for better reading
Visual programming






dataflow / diagrammatic programming
node-based VPL
http://sourcebinder.org/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz_Composer
Rich shell
Aka CLUI (command line user interface), beagle (wrong keyword)
TermKit (node + webkit):
Hotwire Shell (python):
Other:
Shell autocompletion:
Programmable bash completions
Notebook
Aka document code
Jupyter Notebook (IPython Notebook) .ipynb
Literate CoffeeScript .litcoffee .coffee.md
two-column Docco
Outline
Also called Document map.
Outline important elements like :
pages
sections and sub-sections
titles and sub-titles
Objects : packages, classes, methods, properties, etc.
Minimap
Graphical dezomed view of document like navigator panel in Photoshop
Code hightlighting
Aka syntax hightlighting
Code flow
Save all calls, contexts (like closures), parameters, time, duration
Code reload
live reloading: reload completely, loose the app state
hot reloading: reload partial parts, but keep current app state
Works easily for declarative code. It's more complicated for imperative code (or procedural code), where the code controle the app state with control flow
Declarative programming contrasts with imperative and procedural programming. Declarative programming is a non-imperative style of programming in which programs describe their desired results without explicitly listing commands or steps that must be performed
Breadcrumbs
Sticky context
Or sticky scope
See also breadcrumbs
Code vision
contextual information and navigation displayed at the top of classes, interfaces, and members
