Glad it's ok with you. The more I study vs code, the more I think it is a
great platform for hosting Leo's bridge.

Heh. I have lots of studying to do first.

Yesterday I spent over an hour getting typescript in 5 minutes
<https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/typescript-in-5-minutes.html>
to work, hehe. I made every conceivable mistake setting up
.vscode/launch.json and test/ekr_ts_tests/tsconfig.json. It was all good.
This is how I learn.

I had forgotten that electron just draws web pages using chromium
<https://www.chromium.org/Home>! This means that we get all the great w3c
technologies and decades (centuries? millennia??) of rendering engineering.
The architecture (master/renderer processes
<https://www.electronjs.org/docs/tutorial/application-architecture#main-and-renderer-processes>)
seems like an excellent foundation.

I am also thinking that vs code will provide a more natural host for Joe
Orr's great work.

I am hoping that Leo's syntax can be an embedded language
<https://code.visualstudio.com/api/language-extensions/syntax-highlight-guide#embedded-languages>
specified with a single embeddedLanguages contribution point. What do you
think?  As you say, handling @others is going to take considerable work.
