Karl BartelI enjoy notepad calculators like https://numbr.dev, but I wanted something that works both as a web app and on local files via CLI and fix a few annoyances along the way. The result is https://github.com/karlb/calced/ .
Let me know how you like it!
I also enjoyed the technical part of creating this. With LLM help, calced got a python implementation with a nice CLI interface and JS version with a proper web UI. Both of them
- read the same syntax
- have no dependencies
- are contained in a single file (just download and run)
See this blog post for some thoughts on the process:
