Would there be any benefit trying to emulate codeacademy's method to provide a sandbox tool to learn how to program?

The other day I searched for a tool to teach me a certain language and I found codeacademy. For example, the course on Ruby will have instructions on the left, an area to program, and then an output to display the program.

The thing is, BYOND doesn't just spit out a web page, it's spitting out an actual compiled program that has to be interpreted.

Now, if you want this for BYOND's obsolete DMCGI system, that's entirely possible.

But for seeing the actual results of your DM code how it would appear when running it through DreamSeeker, doubt that's even remotely trivial to pull off.
