> We're now building Darklang to run locally as a CLI

Dark's structure editor looked promising. I'm really disappointed that the project moved away from this because a hosted visual programming environment felt like the whole value proposition in the first place.

Was it the pivot to AI that killed this, was it issues with the design of the language or was the structure editor just not as useful as it seemed?

Stachu is really interested in bringing back the hosted programming environment in some form fyi. Just need to get the basics working first.
