CopyPaster

In 2021 let's start making all web forms copy/pasteable. This will allow for much faster form filling, eReceipts, collaborative editing of forms with version control via Git, and a whole lot more.

Why now?

TreeNotation makes it possible to do all of this in a simple, robust, typesafe way. Filling out a web form is isomorphic to editing a Tree Notation document. As a user edits a form, a textarea updates with the Tree Notation version. The user can copy/paste to and from that textarea.

But wait, there's more!

Editing a Tree Notation document is also isomorphic to editing a spreadsheet. So all web forms can be a web form AND a single copy/pasteable Tree Notation document AND a spreadsheet!

copypaster's Issues

Clarify advantages of using tree notation over other formats

making forms copy-pastable is a neat idea! but i feel like the same benefits could be achieved by simply making web forms serializable to any suitable format of choice, preferably a human-readable/editable one. i think this proposal would benefit from clarifying the unique advantages of using tree notation vs, say, JSON + a schema.
