Is there a way to integrate some kind of "run this source code" button into the D wiki using run.dlang.io?

If there isn't, it would be nice to add this kind of thing as plugin with the possibility of also including the editor so you never need to leave the wiki. (like on the D Tour)

Also the D Tour uses codemirror [1] which has an extension for wikimedia [2]

1. https://codemirror.net/index.html
2. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CodeMirror

Yeah an extension combining CodeMirror and adding another tab or splitting the container for the output, executed by run.dlang.io would be a cool addition to the wiki and would not be blocked as easily as iframes.

From my quick lookup, its seems after embedded in your WikiMedia instances, it exposes a JavaScript API to monitor change and then execute the code. If run.dlang.io has a rest API of some kind, have to look up how it's done in tour, then its a matter of showing the code in a bottom div.

Not familiar with the WikiMedia extension system but having it as a reusable component will be the ideal approach.
