I think this is great, especially because it's OSS.
But if you want to really outshine Strong and Heavy, I'd look into "auto progression" of exercises. Too often, people just... log the same thing for years. Some RIR / RPE / linear progression would keep people motivated.
I firmly agree on #1. In fact, my piano tuner is not wheelchair-bound and that was a white lie. My apologies. He was born blind.
#2: Normally I would strongly disagree. It's a NYC trope to say our subway is in shambles because pick one of: the city is old, the city is dense, the subway runs 24/7, and so on. And yet Paris, London, and other ancient subways run better and make cheaper and faster improvements.
But looking around, it seems like accessibility is very poor for London and Paris too. So you're right. They all have this in common. In fact, NYC may even be ahead[1]
However, going on a real tangent here, with the crazy amounts of money we spend or even with quantitative easing[2], I feel like we could try novel concepts like shutting down entire city blocks for months at a time and compensate everyone involved. Yes, crazy prices, but who knows?
I think that's somewhat uncharitable of a take. But fundamentally, I agree with you.
See my other comment. In this ideal, the experience for the wheelchair-bound is comparable to others. Not the current embarrassment we have in New York, for example.
But I think taken to the extreme: who wouldn't prefer a private air-conditioned taxi over 100 ˚F subway platforms?
In this hypothetical: we're assuming the facilities are good enough that the experience for the disabled is within reasonable parity.
On the other hand, if it means having to go 40 blocks uptown, just to find an elevator then head back downtown, the system is inadequate and my narrative doesn't hold.
Believe me, I'm very fiscally skeptical with government spending.
Moreover, public transportation costs in the US are outrageous. Each elevator in the tens of millions for an NYC subway station. It's a racket and unacceptably corrupt.
But we can tackle both problems, and should.
Even with hyper efficient spending, there's an external benefit that is hard to measure and value beyond the cold, hard cash needed for the infrastructure vs government-paid private rides.
I've been laterally involved in frivolous ADA lawsuits for websites before, so I also understand how even noble goals can become corrupted.
A while ago — and I have no citations for this — I read it was easier to just pay for private rides for every accessible person than to make NYC and SF's public transportation accessible. Yes, in perpetuity. Considerably cheaper, too.
Why then, go through the effort? Because they should be integrated into society like all others. I firmly believe public transportation has benefits beyond efficiency.
Something about a billionaire on the 6 train next to a restaurant worker and a wheelchair-bound piano tuner[1] strikes me as poetic and noble. Whatever the costs.
Django's documentation has ruined me. I took the high quality for granted. Now when I use any of these tiny NodeJS/frontend modules, I'm surprised at how barebones the documentation can be.
Such an excellent project, community and set of docs. By far my favorite framework.
