Description
The example app in this repo is quite feature-full, supporting C/C++ and having the open-vsx integration that permits adding VS Code extensions at runtime. Nothing wrong with that - a portion of eventual adopters of the trace extension would use it in such an application.
However it could also be useful to have a single-purpose application, dedicated to trace viewing with no extra clutter/features. I guess that one could fulfill a similar use-case as the Trace Compass RCP. I think this application could be "pure Theia" and would not require VS Code extensions support.

Define the smallest standalone Trace Compass RCP-like experience and confirm that the result omits C/C++ support and runtime VS Code extension integration.
