Ask HN: Programmable Canvas Tool?
There was a programmable canvas/whiteboard tool that I saw on HN within the past year and again within the past few months.
Anyone know what I'm talking about?
It let you write code blocks that looked like cards on a whiteboard/canvas type interface, and things were draggable.
- josters 4y agoDo you mean the cards themselves are programmable and get rendered on the canvas? What first came to my mind was Obsidian Canvas which was recently discussed on here[1]. It is a feature of the note taking tool Obsidian where you can write code blocks (contained within notes or sections of notes) and drag them around on a canvas.

- tikkun 4y agoThe cards could run javascript code, I believe. I think it was related to the keyword 'hypercard' – but I've been searching with that and not found it.

- tikkun 4y agoNot that. I think it was related to the keyword 'hypercard' – but I've been searching with that and not found it. It looked like a digital whiteboard tool except the cards on the whiteboard could run code and such. It was 100% digital.
