Show HN: Dynamic drawing application in Swift, inspired by Bret Victor talk
- ivan_ah 10y agoVery nice. Would be great to explore geometry problems. Another approach towards the same goal is this http://ravichugh.github.io/sketch-n-sketch/ http://ravichugh.github.io/sketch-n-sketch/
- fit2rule 10y agoI can't get this to build - XCode 7.3.1 - and there don't seem to be any requirements in the SETUP.md that I can see - anyone know what it takes to get this to build?
- Someone 10y agoI can't tell for sure from that limited information, but the most recent commit has comment "upgrade to xcode 8/swift 3". AFAIK, Xcode 7 doesn't do Swift 3.
- adamnemecek 10y agoThis is in fact the issue.
- fit2rule 10y agoAh, thanks for spotting that. I'll hold off on checking into this project until I upgrade to XCode8 .. appreciate the effort!
- kawera 10y agoIn the mean time, there is a compiled version in the release page.
- laszlokorte 10y agoAs kawera said you can either download the compiled version or checkout commit HEAD^5 (cc60e82c) which is compatible with XCode7
- laszlokorte 10y agoYou are right. I have added a note to the readme.
- instakill 10y agoSo many cool projects have been borne out of the concepts in Bret's previous talks. I hope this trend continues.
- laszlokorte 10y agoThere is also a Java implementation of the same project which is little ahead in terms of some some features (expression evaluation and exporting/importing images): https://github.com/laszlokorte/reform-java https://github.com/laszlokorte/reform-java
- Naeron 10y agoAre there any other projects similar to this? (I'm working on something related but this came as a surprise: I've never even heard about this project even though a have been researching fanatically in this topic.)
- laszlokorte 10y agoThere is also http://aprt.us/ http://aprt.us/ which works more in a declarative way rather than a procedural way. (discussed here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10293368 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10293368)
- Naeron 10y agoI know about them both, but thanks anyway. I follow BV and Toby Schachman too on Twitter. (and Eve, Chris Granger, CDG Labs and also HARC). You are the first new one in a year or so.
- eg312 10y agoI've done some (not quite similar) experiments: https://vimeo.com/160730056 https://vimeo.com/160730056 I wanted a quick way to edit code and see live results - to make it easier to explore/test new combinations.
- laszlokorte 10y agoThis one is pretty cool as well: http://tobyschachman.com/Shadershop/ http://tobyschachman.com/Shadershop/
- a_c 10y agoAnd now, you inspired me :)
- erichocean 10y agoYou might consider utilizing Geometric Algebra. A lot of geometry-related things are straightforward to express with it, and there's a nice C++ library that implements it.
- sn9 10y agoAre you talking about Versor? It's what came up when I Googled it. http://versor.mat.ucsb.edu/ http://versor.mat.ucsb.edu/
- erichocean 10y agoThere's that one, and there's another one described here: http://www.geometricalgebra.net/ http://www.geometricalgebra.net/
- laszlokorte 10y agoThanks. I have not heard of it. I will take a closer look.
