How exciting would it be to have a fully functional online IDE integrated into the Merlin Pro subscription, similar to bolt.new?
By leveraging the open-source nature of bolt.diy, you could create a dedicated fork that enhances the current capabilities of Merlin.
This new tool could be distinct from the existing Merlin chat interface, providing users with a seamless experience tailored specifically for development tasks.
Imagine a platform where users can not only code but also collaborate and share their projects effortlessly, much like what you've done with Bonkers/ Wallflower.
This would not only enrich the Merlin ecosystem but also empower users to build and innovate in ways that are currently limited.
I believe this addition could significantly enhance user engagement and satisfaction, making Merlin an even more indispensable tool for developers.

Hi Alan,
Thanks so much for the thoughtful suggestion and your patience! After careful consideration, we've decided not to move forward in that direction. The competitive landscape is quite strong, and we realized that we might not be able to deliver the level of value we’d like at an affordable rate. That said, we truly appreciate your input and are always open to exploring ideas that can make Merlin even better! 😊

@endu any chance your team could discuss the likelihood of this?
Your competitors have this and more that I would love to see on this platform https://abacus.ai/

Abacus AI is doing this already with their All-in-one platform (although not as cleanly as bolt.diy or Cursor)
