Show HN: Interval, CLIs in browser with no front end code

I’m very excited by the idea of seamlessly providing a front-end for interactive scripts. (I have a similar idea that I’ve wanted to build for a while.)

Is that an accurate description of what you’re trying to build? Calling Interval a “CLI in the browser” made me think you had a command line in the browser, something like xterm.JS.

I don’t have anything else to say, I think the idea speaks for itself.

I interpreted "CLI in the browser" the same way, seems like a slightly wrong description.

Other than that I love the concept; someone like me who sucks at creating UI's really benefits from something like this (:

Thanks! "Seamlessly providing a front-end for interactive scripts" is a really solid description of what we're doing. Honestly the interactive part is what I think is the most important to get across. A big part of why I started building this was I wanted to prompt for input/display output across multiple steps, basically in conversation with the script.
