Do you plan more reflection? Ex.: namespace
Nothing planned. Reflection is quite different in JavaScript (everything stored in the "window" global) to Phix (everything stored in a symbol table),
so we could be quite limited in the things (of a reflective nature) that we can get to work equivalently on both. There already is a [slightly fudged] get_routine_info().
Should you find anything in https://262.ecma-international.org/11.0 that could be used for/as namespaces let me know (good luck with that 
).
The one thing I should focus on is a GUI. I am leaning towards pGUI but not ruling out irv's new GTK, or even a new GUI that mimics the browser box model on the desktop.
There is clearly no shortcut there, and the other bit of the puzzle is probably either mocking or even better actually running a traditional PHP/SQL backend on the desktop.
