TODO list (should probably move to wiki or something)

[copumpkin]

(These are mostly by @krisher from a while back)

UI

• Horizontal code / output layout (side by side instead of current top/bottom)
• Config and init scripts editable (at least viewable) in web UI
• Notebook grouping in dashboard
• Shared / Collaborative editing
• Notebook overview (e.g. list of variables/values, functions)

IDE features (integrate with Ensime?)

• Compile error underlines
• Hyperlink to source (also in external editor/IDE?)
• Expression type info (e.g. ctrl-q in IntelliJ)
• Better auto-complete
• Scaladoc hovers

Multi-user / distributed kernels

• Per-kernel configuration
• Multi-user auth / security
• Distributed Akka (spawn VM's over a cluster?)
• Better separation between SN server and kernel management system
• Restore IPython-like cluster interface?

Build / Deployment

• Propagate RequireJS (curl.js) through non-3rd party javascript (the IPython sourced stuff), or make sure this is minified into a single file.
• Compile & Lint javascript
• Javascript testing framework (qunit + test driver?)
• Improve development workflow (more play-like?)

Library updates

• Unfiltered -- update or switch?
• Akka to 2.1
• Scala 2.10

Other

• Replace REPL with something else...
  • The way REPL holds state is simultaneously useful and not exactly what we want... In an ideal world we could compile at the cell level, and track dependencies across cells.
• Pure scala representation of notebooks (round trip editing)
• Proper use of typesafe config (reference config + namespaces)
• Multiple notebook directories
• Etag / improved cache control for static resources

I've been thinking about building an adapter so that I can bring SN in as a Play module for an existing application, but your TODO items...

Improve development workflow (more play-like?)

Unfiltered -- update or switch?

...make me think that maybe an adapter isn't bold enough and that you might want to switch to Play completely :) What's your guys' thinking on this?

@copumpkin the 2.10 repl is really usefull. A friend of mine is doing some experiment with it ( scala worksheet in the browser ). I will try to merge it on my scala 2.10 branch soon.
