Interesting methods from the Blender API I figured to make a note of.

• area - viewport dimensions and the view mode
• blend_data - parsed Blend file
• collection - all objects in the scene?
• engine - engine ID like CYCLES and BLENDER_EEVEE?
• gizmo_group - gizmos are the rotating things in the viewport, no?
• layer_collection - this I think replaces the former 20 hardcoded layers
• mode - viewport mode
• preferences - access to user settings
• region - how does this differ from area?
• region_data - ?
• scene
• screen - editor settings?
• space_data - how is this different from screen, region and area?
• tool_settings - various thresholds and values for tools
• view_layer - calling update on it recalculates texts
• window - allows moving and setting the cursor and faking keyboard input
• window_manager - access open windows
• workspace - setting status text

• data - how does it differ from bpy.context.blend_data?

• copy_python_command_button - get python command name from button

• blend_paths - gets paths to referenced but unpacked files
• execfile

Could be used for the light box.

All API bits would have their own readme section automatically generated and I would just fill in bits to the sections I played around with and found something I wanted to capture.
