Description

This is feedback on the exercise assistant @iHiD / @ErikSchierboom introduced last video call (a result of the efforts in https://github.com/exercism/v3/issues/1482).

---

I’d probably split it in lots of steps. Steps without order, so we’d need an overview with links like:
- add/edit example
- add/edit config
- add/edit introduction
- etc…

That page could be designed as a status page on that exercise and maybe possibly also show contents added in each step (not sure as that will likely take a lot of space).

Why I’d prefer that?
Currently it seemed to me like one huge step (without any saving in between — data loss in browser?). That was quite intimidating from my point of view as I could only hit save after all was filled.

If I can open an exercise and e.g. just add an example and then walk away. The next day I'd add some instructions or someone else comes in and improves on my example… that be like a co-working environment with small hurdles. At least in my imagination 😂
