This poem has a special place in my heart because I learned it when I was about 10 years old from the TRS-80 "User's Manual For Level 1" book. See page 209!
That's one of the first programs I ever keyed in. It would print the stanzas out slowly, pausing in between, all the while "snowing" pixels onto the screen. I fell in love with programming then, and it's been magic ever since. Here's to a few more miles...
Awesome! Yeah, I had an OpenSource Hardware project blow up on a tech site overnight before I was ready to launch and it was really weird navigating the next ~two months before it was actually ready to ship.
I'm excited to follow along with your progress, and to embed it into something fun when it's ready for embedding :)
Thanks for adding the changelog today! That will make it super easy for everyone to follow the progress.
- I think you should report the rev somewhere. I can’t tell what the “current rev” is in GitHub or in the running demo.
- The roadmap says what’s coming in 0.5 (October 2024), but it’s not clear whether 0.5 is “done” or if that’s what’s running on the demo site today.
IronCalc would be awesome as an “embedded viewer” for data. I’m currently implementing an internal web app where I’d love to provide “monitoring” by just dumping a whole lot of transactional data from the db into a “live” IronCalc spreadsheet as a “view” tool that you could also do some data exploration in.
The 0.5 roadmap says “API to set and read values from cells” but it’s not clear to me whether it would be possible or not to embed it today and inject data at “start” time from JS. The scope of the current docs is “using it as a spreadsheet” but they don’t cover “how to embed it / integrate it”.
Love love LOVE! Would embed it TODAY as a data viewer could. :) Nice work! I am watching with bated breath!
Done. VIM and Bram have given me so very much; very happy to support. Looking at Bram's GitHub commit chart for 2023 is haunting (https://github.com/brammool). Thanks for everything Bram; We'll miss you.
