finally looks like we can stop hacking together fake file systems with imports. seeing a real file explorer in the editor is wild, especially since it actually lets you use imports like import foo from './foo.js' now. i'm pretty tired of those 2000 line javascript files that just break everything. the new sidebar is kind of annoying though if you're used to the old layout, but at least there's a shortcut to hide it. it'll be interesting to see if anyone actually uses this for anything more than simple web components or small prototypes. i doubt i'll ditch my local setup for anything involving service workers or complex stuff yet. do you guys think the multi-page support is actually usable for real work?
