I'm using a thing called microMath+ on Android (available on F-Droid) but it's kind of clumsy. I haven't tried hacking on it yet to improve the UI, but I'm wondering if there might be something else out there that's already better. (Not proprietary software, obviously.)

I don’t see the app on F-Droid – the listing on https://www.f-droid.org/en/packages/32/index.html skips from “Microchip” to “Microphone”. I can’t find the app’s website or code by searching the web either – all I found was this C++ project from 2012: https://github.com/candycode/micromath .

Sorry, it's spelled with a Greek lowercase mu.

It wasn’t clear what part of “microMath+” you meant should be replaced by μ, but I eventually found the app. It’s μMath+, on F-Droid at https://www.f-droid.org/en/packages/com.mkulesh.micromath.pl... and on GitHub at https://github.com/mkulesh/microMathematics.

I wrote https://dedo.io/ as a web version of this, since there's no good equivalent for linux

Have you seen NaSC? https://parnold-x.github.io/nasc/

nice! This doesn't seem to support money though. Maybe I'll add a PR :D

Nice! Is it open-source? This is the kind of web-app that has a legitimate use for off-line first service workers and localStorage to save the previous session

There's an old version available, but for no good reason. I should make this public - email me at gabi [at] purcaru [dot] com if you want to contribute

actually, just checked. The website is published with github pages from https://github.com/gabipurcaru/dedo/. For the geeks out there, this bit of code should be interesting: https://github.com/gabipurcaru/dedo/blob/master/lang/src/uni...

That's right. I'm sorry I didn't post the correct name in the first place; I don't have https://github.com/kragen/xcompose set up on my hand computer (because it doesn't run X).
