I was just playing with SQL Notebooks in Azure Data Studio, and I found this quite a fun and interesting concept. Then there are of course Jupyter/Python notebooks as well. (In case you are not familiar with the concept - you basically write a documentation document with notes and descriptions and inside it you embed data cells that perform operations. You can either run all cells, or run them one by one.) My next thought was - what if one could have an FME notebook? I think it would work very well for not-too-complicated one-off workspaces, or for tutorials. The documentation text is central and data cells one could perhaps be like bookmarks in a workspace. I am not sure how it would work and/or how one would implement this... But imagine uploading an FME notebook to a Flow instance to create a server app centered on the documentation and step by step execution of transformers/bookmarks/operations!
