Launching other applications from the web UI
Packaging as an Electron app
Editor
Formula functions as in Phoebus
Review existing projects
- React Automation Studio
Javascript build system
Documentation

Handle multiple PVs on one widget (see Phoebus widget runtime code)
- Could all these PVs be part of a single device?
Define rule capabilities
Prototype Pyburt UI
Simplify 'wrappers' and avoid extra divs where possible
Allow group-box style border on any widget
Allow PV values to be used as symbols, as in the EDM MenuMuxPV widget
Make widget parsing more generic:
- allow complex parsers to create multiple props
- allow widgets to provide their own custom parsers
- forbid unrecognised fields (at least in json files)

Load different CS-Studio screens and assess how well they work
Try to create a beamline synoptic more closely
Add widgets for all the graphical elements that Phoebus has
- See https://github.com/dls-controls/cs-web-proto/issues/74
Handle unrecognised protocol (xyz://) better
- This is easy to reproduce but will end up exploring how Redux works in the app
Make demo PVs update less quickly
- This is easy to reproduce but will end up exploring how Redux works in the app
Handle alignment of groups in .bob files
Position class name clashes with built-in Position type
Disable action button when writing to read-only PV
Text update jitters when number turns negative
"Manifest: Line: 1, column: 1, Syntax error." in the console
