   Yes, we're continuing to improve the templates so they are better on mobile. This all came out of a research project so there are many rough edges, but we're making progress! If anyone wants to get involved on the open source side

   We're working on this with https://idyll-lang.org/ , it does some of the things you mention already (standard conventions for how to do common tasks, standard set of widgets, handles loading data, extensible plugin syst

   You might be interested in Idyll [1], a project that I started as part of my research at UW. One of the explicit goals is to make it easier to create explorable explanations. [1] - https://idyll-lang.org/

    Hi all, I've been leading the charge to put this together. Its built on Idyll [1], which I'm developing as part of my PdD at the University of Washington. You may have seen some of our articles, they appear on HN from time to time

    https://idyll-lang.org/ is built for this. You'll still have to write code for your custom graphics but it will help you get things up and running quickly. Check out https://mathisonian.github.io/idyll&

    Thanks for this great feedback. I hadn't considered the difference between distortion in each of the strings vs applied overall, but that makes sense. [edit] as korethr described above, I chose to implement it this way because of the s

    Thanks Mike. The sound is using tone.js [0] (with a slight modification to make the tuning work). The rest is built with - idyll (for the overall structure of the post) [1] - d3 with svg and canvas (for the tuner and visualizations) [2] -

    Sorry to hear about the audio issues! I tested on chrome and macOS, and didn't encounter anything like that. I'm curious what OS you're using, or maybe its just Google's new 'smart' autoplay policy.

    Hey Akud, I'd love to talk more about possible ways to collaborate. Adding components that help interface with other libraries are a great way to contribute. For example, the recent integration with Apparatus [1]. Feel free to jump in
