WebUI Code Editor / Canvas / Artifacts

[Danmoreng]

I wonder if there is interest in having a similar feature in the WebUI as basically all chat UIs have right now: some sort of code editor, canvas/artifacts area, where the LLM can read and write code or text to and the user sees the outcome/can work on it.

Back in November I already mentioned this in issue #16597, but the WebUI wasn't in the state it is today. Now that MCP support has landed, maybe it is a good time to dicuss something like this? @allozaur @ServeurpersoCom

I think this needs some more planning regarding how to store artifact data accompanying conversations and if tool calls in the frontend are a good idea in the first place or it should be an MCP implementation as well.

Demo how a simple implementation could look like:

code_editor_demo.mp4

Code: master...Danmoreng:llama.cpp:feature/code-editor-v2

Hey @Danmoreng, yes, we actually are planning to have this implemented in near future (i even have some development branch for this locally), but before that we have some other things we need to have sorted out :) lemme check out your branch and come back to you later this month
