Challanges at development and solutions

Code will be provided to Preview as a string. We have to execute it safely ?

  A solution is esbuild-wasm.ESBuild can transpile + bundle code all in the browser. 
  --- ESBuild Bundling Cycle ---
  1. Figure out where the index.js is stored (onResolve)
  2. Attemp to load up the index.js file (onLoad)
  3. Parse the index.js file, find any import/require/exports
  4. If there's any import/require/exports, figure out where the requested file is (onResolve) => UNPKG
  5. Attemp to load up the file
  (Used localforage (indexedDB) to cache)
