So.. you want an IDE, and a web tech-based editor. Why not just combine both into one goal- HTML5-based IDE? In the IDE you could also compile the code directly, and just use a slightly modified version of the compiler for other places.

Yes. Also, I might need help on this because I don’t know that much JS LOL.

function print(input) {
  console.log(input);
};

I haven't looked through the FluffScript language spec all that much yet, but it looks like some parts of it could essentially be copied over to JS and work fine.

Edit: and most of the things that can't can either be custom-made functions (an example is print()- which could be implemented as

function print(input) {
  console.log(input);
};

in the background- but others too), or are essentially replaced keywords (cst instead of const, for example).

Cool, thanks. I might implement this in turbowarp.

Write some FS code then import the .txt file to here:
Crude compiler that I made
Once your code is output, open the .txt, copy all of it, use this site:
uglifyjs

I think you made a mistake at “// increase/decrease existing variable”
it should be

myVarName += 1;
myVarName -= 1;

right?

in most languages myVarName = myVarName += 1 is the same as myVarName += 1, which makes it more confusing.
I suppose we need clarification on what just myVarName += 1 on its own does.

Even easier:

const print = console.log

True, and the end result is effectively the same, but for most people newer to programming it's hard to understand why that would work, especially if you didn't know that the value of a function, when you don't call it, is the code for the function itself.

Also, for functions with large definitions, it may take less time overall to do what I did, than to copy all of the function definition.

But you're not copying the function definition. It takes the same time no matter how big it is because it's passed by reference [citation needed]
