A journal article, a programming tutorial, and a computational notebook.
What do they all have in common?  All convey complex ideas from a writer
to an audience.  However, the tools to create and read them have not
kept pace with the complexity of their contents.  What would it look
like if we had tools as sophisticated as state-of-the-art IDEs
(integrated development environments, like Visual Studio or IntelliJ)
for authoring and reading these artifacts?  What interactions would they
provide?  What algorithms and models would they require?
