was thinking about helping a non-developer friend make edits to a project and how complicated it is to get that code set up on your machine just to make some small changes. was thinking it could be interesting to have a way to scaffold a simple interface that you can click through to run all the necessary commands - it could extract the instructions that are already in the README.md file, so it’s still close to the raw command line commands that are being run, just in a friendlier interface (arguably still too close - is there a way to get out of running these commands at all…)
