3Some things I'd love to see come to val town (some of these are already on the way according to the team)
4
5- [x] Editing a val's readme through the API
6- [x] A command bar (something like [paco's cmdk](https://cmdk.paco.me/) would be *dope*)
7- [ ] The ability or programmatically respond to events (like a val being run) right within Val Town
5- [ ] A bare bones CMS to edit markdown files hosted on a github (or val town readmes eventually)
6- [ ] A set of Vals for interacting with github repos via Octokit (useful for the above CMS idea)
7- [ ] A full json-server like implementation for quickly generating stub APIs based on json/valtown blob data ([begun](https://www.val.town/v/nbbaier/dbToAPI))
8- [ ] An implementation of [Convert bookmarklet to Chrome extension](https://sandbox.self.li/bookmarklet-to-extension/)
9- [ ] A tool for generating an NPM package from a Val or set of Vals (something like [dnt]- [ ] (https://github.com/denoland/dnt/))
11- [ ] A component library (this would be a wild swing for me)
12- [ ] A val to get a dependency graph of a val(s) ([started here](https://www.val.town/v/rlesser/dependency_graph) by [rlesser](https://www.val.town/u/rlesser))
13- [ ] A single val that wraps a [FeTS client](https://the-guild.dev/openapi/fets) to the API for saving a couple of lines of boilerplate
14- [ ] A val for generating OpenAPI specs from jsdoc comments within vals (sort of like [this npm package](https://www.npmjs.com/package/jsdoc-openapi))
15- [ ] Conways game of life
