Description

I recently came across [this video](https://youtu.be/LfPmmPgUZLE) describing the Truffle for VS Code functionality. There's also a write-up [here](https://trufflesuite.com/blog/build-on-web3-with-truffle-vs-code-extension/) that goes into a bit more depth.

There are some cool ideas in here that we could get inspiration from. Some things like debugging aren't currently possible although there is an issue open [here](https://github.com/FuelLabs/sway/issues/1864) that is tracking the development.

It seems like the general idea for us though is to offer a UI for allowing developers to still interact with `forc` but without needing to interact with the command line. One way to do this is by harnessing the command pallet, such as what has been starting in #52. Launching `fuel-core` and having it appear in the UI is interesting. Also being able to right-click on a script file and have a dialog box appear for running the script is also a cool idea.

I'm sure there are many more cool features we could be looking to add. Just wanted to open an issue so we could start discussing what these could be.
