Yes, that's exactly what I'm proposing. I tried to explain as such in the
notes at the bottom of the <nav> example. Running code examples (a la
codepen or jsfiddle or the one Lea created for Web Platform) *embedded into
the page* are ideal. From what I understand, that's not possible on the
current mediawiki website, which is why the running code examples all open
on a separate URL. Julee had the idea of at least putting an example of the
output on the page, even if it's all static and can't be edited. I'd love
to see technology running web platform.org evolve into something that does
support simple, inline, editable code examples.
