Have you heard of dion? https://media.handmade-seattle.com/dion-systems/ It's still in the category of "inserting text with the keyboard", but the underlying representation of the "program" isn't raw text. The text is just a user interface for a more complicated representation.
"Hazel is a live functional programming environment that is able to typecheck, manipulate, and even run incomplete programs, i.e. programs with holes. There are no meaningless editor states."
It's a programming language and IDE that's fully integrated with the semantics of the language. I saw the demo at Strange Loop in 2019[1], and it was really cool to see the interactive, dialogue-esque development workflow that I love from super dynamic lisps - but working with a strong, statically, dependently typed language. It reminded me of Idris, but even more integrated.

It seems like it's vaguely similar to SGML but with small but significant differences: instead of blah blah you say a: "blah blah", the node labels can be user data instead of just structure, attribute values are full subtrees instead of just strings, and attributes syntactically precede the node, so you say @foo(bar) baz instead of .

- like https://www.liquidtext.net/ for program codes ? - or Flow-based programming ? --> https://github.com/topics/dataflow-programming
I'm not sure anyone's actually using it, but there are some good ideas in there.

Verse is believed to include ideas from SkookumScript, which Epic acquired [1], and Simon Peyton Jones, a main contributor to Haskell [2].

If you don't want open source developers to starve, you damn well put your money where your mouth is. High quality open source software is worth paying for. The times when open source software is a niche cottage industry powered by volunteers are long gone. Time is not free, and software does not grow on trees (despite what overprivileged lisp users may claim).
