* [replit](https://replit.com/) collaborative browser based IDE.
* Say you have a failing test that used to work, it would be very valuable to see all code that was changed that was used only by that test.
e.g. you have a test `calculate_sum_test` that only uses the function `add`, when the test fails you should be able to see a diff showing only what changed for the function `add`. It would also be great to have a diff of [expression values](https://homepages.cwi.nl/~storm/livelit/images/bret.png) Bret Victor style. An ambitious project would be to suggest or automatically try fixes based on these diffs.
* I think it could be possible to create a minimal reproduction of a program / block of code / code used by a single test. So for a failing unit test I would expect it to extract imports, the platform, types and functions that are necessary to run only that unit test and put them in a standalone roc project. This would be useful for sharing bugs with library+application authors and colleagues, for profiling or debugging with all "clutter" removed.
* Ability to share program state at a breakpoint with someone else.
### Cool regular editors
