1. a Package Manager (they sort of already have one called TEA, but its not active as far as I know)
2. an IDE or a good modes for the popular editors (VS Code, Emacs, Vim, Sublime Text)
For a UI language the absense of a good IDE or editor modes is very strange, you would expect that a Tcl/Tk IDE written in Tcl/Tk (one that also serve as UI framework or scaffolding for other apps) would be its killer app, but there isnt one
The main issue with supporting those IDEs is that the Language Server Protocol is vast and really quite complicated. More than a weekend's work to go to doing the interesting bits so life gets in the way...
The IDE tools for Tcl have tended to be commercial and to not see much general adoption. Never understood why.
