Description Matthew Flaschen 2013-02-02 02:10:23 UTC
Investigate generating tours automatically using a library like esprima or uglifyjs.  Essentially, this would track the curator's actions (clicking certain things, typing tour text when prompted, etc.), generate an AST, then pass it to the library for JS generation.

This could decrease the obstacles to writing tours.  However, the generated code needs to be readable and maintainable, so people can make necessary changes.

Bugs like this make me wish there was a difficulty rating for bugs as well. ;)
