"Ideas are worthless without execution" - Many People

To transform an idea, you need to plugin a transformer like the following example.

//my.idea
plugin "@stackpress/idea-typescript" {
  ts true
  output "./src/types.ts"
}
// ... your idea ...
// model Product ...

You can use other ideas, just import them like the following example.

//my.idea
use "./another.idea"
// ... your idea ...
// model Product ...

To execute an idea, you just need to run the following command.

$ npx idea transform -i my.idea
