Noted. A standalone mobile app is low on the dev priorities list right now, but hopefully we'll get to it someday. Also, the desktop app (which will be available within the next few days) is 100% local, no internet connection necessary

Calculist is more lightweight than Jupyter or Google Colab, and it's more note-taking oriented than data processing oriented. It's more of a handy thinking tool than a complete computing environment.

Roam is more oriented towards networked thought and knowledge management. Calculist is geared more towards problem solving and calculation.

I'm working on creating more resources now (videos, templates, better documentation, etc.), and I'll be updating the site accordingly in the coming days.
