My Val Town Wish List

Some things I'd love to see come to val town (some of these are already on the way according to the team)

  • Editing a val's readme through the API
  • A command bar (something like paco's cmdk would be dope)
  • The ability or programmatically respond to events (like a val being run) right within Val Town
  • User defined templates usable right in the val creation flow
  • Public folders / ability to add readmes to folders
  • Dynamic folders (ala Tana's search nodes)
  • Custom val metadata (such as tags)
  • A more fully featured markdown editor for readmes
