Intriguing: live editing usually lets you edit some value in the browser or running app, but with an "LSP server" you can have it work with your existing text editor to edit in the original environment

Yes! I’m hoping to see more people find interesting uses/abuses of language servers like this.

yeah super interesting that approach.

This is interesting. I'd like to add a third interface to take actions on the state: chatting with AI in natural language. Even built this small proof-of-concept:

Love this! A couple years back I built a prototype live coding/DAW hybrid with that idea: https://lambein.xyz/paw-live2023/

there is https://openscad.org/ with grammar and hotload, with trivial enough lang to write transpiler in page or 2 of lisp/clojure (ah, it is mentioned in the article, and the point is bi-directional editing. nvm)
