maybe you could add a "Math adder/Math averager" block languages?

#222This is just outstanding. It's so exactly what I wish for out of a scratch pad. My feature request to add to your pile (possibly a lonely one, since maybe it's just unique to how my brain works): I really want a scratch pad like this to have UX that supports "inverted" order. Meaning, new blocks get added to the top of the page instead of the bottom. The blocks naturally flow in descending order of creation rather th…
Happy you like it :). I get the idea of the "inverted order". I wonder if it would be enough to make it configurable so that C-Enter inserts a new block before the current one + Heynote sets the cursor at the beginning of the buffer at startup (instead of last which is the current behavior)?

It's not open source, as it uses the Commons Clause which severely limits what can be done with it (the name is misleading).
As far as a quick google search got me, it seems pretty open with the only caveat being you can't sell or monetize it... how is that not open source?
open source doesn't mean source code is there. open source has a specific definition. There is a list of acceptable open source licenses, as defined by OSI. similarly there is a list of acceptable free software licenses, as defined by FSF. Broadly, the two lists are the same. Commons Clause is definitely not open source.

#224What do you use to design your websites (Heynote and Locust)? Are you working off a template?
Re: Show HN: Heynote – A dedicated scratchpad for developers
#225It seems strange for the website to only give the Apple shortcut keys for a cross-platform app. It gives the actual keys when I run it on Linux, but I can't figure out what "Ctrl + ⌥ + Up/Down" means. Looks quite neat though.
I'll also fix the "⌥" in the editor. Thanks!

#226This looks awesome! I love the blocks idea. I’m gonna download and give it a try. I see lots of comments about Electron (per usual here haha) and I just thought I’d shout out Tauri if you hadn’t run across it. It’s basically Electron-but-in-Rust and uses the system webview instead of Chromium, so bundle size and memory usage is reduced a bunch. I took a look at the code and it looks like you haven’t got a ton of Elec…

I also like this. But I don't like the distraction of seeing all the blocks below my cursor move every time I make a new line. The perfect UX would be to add a new buffer at the top, but with enough padding to fill the window so that you can't see the movement of previous blocks while you're typing. (Maybe this is already kinda how it works - I haven't downloaded the app yet, but I'm excited to try it, because it loo…

TIL using the .app TLD makes your website categorically an app
I'm not sure what you mean. This is an app that stores everything client side. It works offline. It's no different from a native app.

#229i immediately tried e^(pi i) and is delightfully surprised that it works! not only the math supports complex numbers, it also allows functions however, something like f(x)= sin(x)/x, f(0) returns NaN. Are there any plans to support derivatives, integration and summation?
