Live coding environments typically include a text editor. Sometimes as in the case of Praxis, its possible to change the behaviour of the text editor while you use it. https://gith…

I love live coding environments, and yours looks really fun. Being so easy to embed, Lua is perfect for basing a live coding environment on. Here is one I made that is also based o…

Why "reproduce"? Don't produce the next generation of slaves. On balance, life is misery. Leave the unborn in peace.

I certainly had Smalltalk and Lisp Machine environments in mind when I made this, the central idea being to be able to query and manipulate every part of the system while its runni…

I've wrangled a crazy way to have your cake and eat it too. do local state = 0 function render() drawLine(0,5,0, 0,5,50*math.sin(state)) state = state + math.pi * 0.03 end end To f…

Thank you! I need to make a video demonstrating the midi recording functionality (its implemented entirely in Lua). I need to keep it short, write a script that is succinct and to …

Thank you for that succinct and immediately useful example of let-over-lambda!

The whole thing is a repl with a graphical and audio engine at your disposal to use as you see fit. As well as writing your program iteratively in the "socratic" repl style, you ar…

> Anyone else know of similar live-coding environments for 3D? You might like praxis. Its being actively maintained and the author is happy to answer questions and requests. https:…

> supporting interaction or encapsulated state I don't know what you mean. Could you give an example of this? What would you like to be able to do?

Has anyone tried "praxis"? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rB39AXPmQQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VRtRazMYSA

I can't help feeling that this attempt to render a previously excellent course more commercially viable by making it more superficially appealing for students is directly linked to…

Are you joking? Or perhaps you didn't read the comment. Those programmers CAME FROM communist countries.

If you use an embedded lisp such as ECL or PLT Scheme, you can take advantage of whatever graphics facilities the host offers, and code in lisp with a "live" repl. This project mig…
