Bored of code blocks? Check out Codeview!

The most common way to show code is via code blocks. But code blocks are really boring. So, to make code blocks more fun (and easier to digest!) I made Codeview.
Code blocks are nice, but they are static, which makes it hard to really explain code. Inserting lines somewhere, replacing lines, these all are kinda confusing with ordinary code blocks. Well, struggle no more, because we have Codeview.
Codeview can automatically mesh, merge, replace, and insert code. It's pretty powerful once you wire it up properly. One potential way I'm considering using it is by linking it to scroll, so that we get a code block which changes with the content!
I have to say that this is pretty broken. One thing is that there's no syntax highlighting, and next thing is that sometimes there are some timing issues, etc. Once I fix all these I'll definitely make this a library!
