Wow, so this is rust compiled to JS? Or I guess WASM which is a subset of JS? Is this the future of the web? Also I noticed the base64/deflate URL fragment storing the entire text content, à la flems.io ... nice!
Love this, but the lack of interpretation of prefixed currency symbols is absolutely maddening! That it simply ignores the number and operand with no indication that these elements are ignored could easily lead to problems. I don't think I could in good conscience trust myself or those I might consider to be the target audience of this app to notice parsing errors in every case. Consider: "$400 / 20" => 20 (ERROR) "$…
In your case syntax highlighting helps. Everything which is not part of a calculation is rendered as a simple text (greyish): [image]( https://trello-attachments.s3.amazonaws.com/558a94779b3b3c5d... ) But yes I admit it takes some time to get used to the colors and their meanings. Currencies and exchange between them are on my feature list btw.
An idea you might consider is to display some kind of warning symbol or message if the input contains digits or operands which are not interpreted as part of the calculation that produces the output. This would have made the semantic meaning of the syntax highlighting immediately more evident.
just a nitpick.. changing the theme resizes the panels automatically to adjust to the first panel's width
This looks great! The README says: > Honestly, it just tries to be a free Soulver alternative in your browser. For people on macOS, Soulver is excellent and worth checking out: https://soulver.app . I almost always have a Soulver window open on my screen.
The ultimate interface _for me_ would be somewhere in between Calca (which I think has superior support for functions/graphing/logical calculations) and Soulver (which I think has better usability/readability) and a graph-based note-taking system like Obsidian/Zettlr. I'm sure somebody will say "there is a Vim plugin that'll do that" but… yea.

Your comment made me realize that most unit notation I'm familiar with has the unit as a suffix, with currency being the only standout that comes to mind.
-$4000CAD
CA$-4,000.00
4.000,00CAD$
This could fit that sweetspot for me and others I imagine.
Sadly I haven't found any equivalent for iOS (iPhone and iPad): it would definitely get my money!
