Ask HN: Would a CLI to download a JSFiddle, CodePen, etc. be useful?

1 points by shukantpal ↗ HN
Hello everyone, I'm a maintainer at the PixiJS project. I fix bugs very often and to do so I have to setup a reproduction of the bug locally - that usually means copying code from an online IDE and linking it to the local build of PixiJS. I thought this process could be automated, and I wanted to know how useful it would be for other people.

Example command: fiddle download <URL>

This command would setup a mini webpack project, possibly linked to local builds of any dependencies (otherwise, downloaded using npm). You can run the project using another command like "npm run start".

If you think this is useful, would you pay and how much?
