All that fuss just to deploy a static website on Vercel? :p

Great demo, reminds me a lot of Jupyter Notebook but the "inline" cells are so much better

Nice and very precise. I was expecting controls to be less reactive.

Thank you OP, without you I would never have been able to reach $1000 in MRR and brag about it

There is something wrong with the order of operations. When I type 2+2*2-6 i get -6 which should be 0.

The core features are pretty much universal and used in a lot of apps (chats, forums, git repositories, project management). Custom flavors maybe not rendered correctly at times but this doesn't make documents unreadable

There are plenty of great OSS that looks great but they are often backed or owned by a real company and not just a community project. Gitlab, Firefox, VLC, Blender, VScode or BBB, Jitsi Meet for videoconference...

They explicitly said it will be maintained but they will not be any new features. It's not the same as a project with no commit for three years... I think this post is a bit over the top and shouldn't be required but, I agree, clear communication in OSS librairies is important.

Because it's an exploit (read top comment)

With Math.random you get ~50% win, with the sequence you get 85% because it's an exploit

Some pictures are pretty fun like "What if John Cena was a singer ?" but others don't work that well..
