Interesting! Could you please send a screenshot to contact@tinkerstellar.com? The app does rely on web content for some parts of the interface, but those web resources are loaded locally from device itself, without reaching anywhere outside

Mac is certainly on the roadmap, and iPhones' screens seem a tad small for something like this to be honest.

The limitations are more on the under-the-hood side of things, e.g. you can't link any compiled code after you submit the app to the App Store — which means no way of letting the user install arbitrary packages (something a Python IDE

Thank you! Both Tinkerstellar and Juno embed a Python interpreter built for iOS from CPython, no WebAssembly. As per what people use Juno for — great question! I think it's a combination of both, but leaning towards learning (hence I h

Following this link on your device should work without any code I think: https://testflight.apple.com/join/Z2vhNox7

Thank you! Apple has been merciful to my other app Juno (it's a fully-fledged IDE), at least so far: https://juno.sh

Not sure to be honest, probably later this year (depending on how beta testing goes).

Tinkerstellar works beautifully with hardware keyboards and trackpads, but you certainly don't need one to use the app. Labs already have all the necessary code in them — so you can simply run it and see what each code snippet does.

The app and content will be available for free when it launches — although I do have plans to add some paid premium labs/content later at some point.

Thank you! Apologies, I'm somewhat new to HN.

Yes, certainly. It will likely be an M1 Mac app first, but Catalyst would be the ultimate goal (so that it's available on all Macs, not just those on Apple Silicon).

No immediate plans, but perhaps in the longer term, sure. Right now it works completely autonomously on your iPad.

(Full disclosure: I'm the app developer) I'm looking for beta testers for my new app Tinkerstellar, it is similar in concept to Apple’s own Swift Playgrounds, but for Python and computational science. Essentially, it’s a collectio
