I honestly can't understand why hasn't anybody made a TI-compatible calculator, ideally with a clean-room-implementation OSS stack.
It could probably get most of the TI market share, and be more exciting to use.
- colejohnson66 6y agoThe biggest thing is ACT/SAT approval. If that’s what you need, check out NumWorks[0]. It works on both and is completely open source (down to the schematics). [0]: https://www.numworks.com/ https://www.numworks.com/
- nsajko 6y agoIt's source-available, not open-source. And the schematics sources are not available; but I don't think it would be very difficult to reinvent them, considering the number of parts is small. On a lighter note, they make it very easy to hack on the calculator, it's written in C++ and in a Git repo at Github.
- colejohnson66 6y agoThe schematics are right here? https://www.numworks.com/resources/engineering/hardware/electrical/schematics/ https://www.numworks.com/resources/engineering/hardware/elec... Granted, it’s not the entire device, but it’s more than most products will give you (none). You are correct about it actually being source-available. My mistake there.
