What if code could leave the boundaries of the traditional editors, and call home an infinite two-dimensional surface as a new spatial development environment? Code Canvas makes this possible. A project put together by Kael Rowan, an RSDE in the Human Interactions in Programming group at Microsoft Research, Code Canvas is designed to offer developers a spatial layout and Deep Semantic Zoom for source code. And an entirely new perspective over building software. Essentially, Code Canvas is meant to catalyze the evolution of the software development experience via spatial memory.
