CalcuLaTeX VS mos

Hey HN, I created CalcuLaTeX because I was frustrated with my workflow for chemistry and physics homework. Generally, I'd use the Python REPL as a calculator and type each problem into LaTeX to turn it in. CalcuLaTeX merges these two steps and makes it easier to reason about calculations by real time visual feedback.

I've posted on r/rust as well (https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/lqn5aa/calculatex_a_p...), and there seems to be interest in using it for scientific papers and such.

The only alternative I know of is PTC MathCAD, which is quite powerful and definitely worth looking into. However, it's quite expensive and Windows only.

The main repo (a Rust library and basic CLI) can be found here: https://github.com/mkhan45/CalcuLaTeX

The website repo using WASM and very hacky JS can be found here: https://github.com/mkhan45/CalcuLaTeX-Web

It supports basic unit conversion via the Unit hints. E.g. you can write 1 hour = ? days. A long term goal is proper Unit coercion which is kind of hard to explain but I did my best in this issue https://github.com/mkhan45/CalcuLaTeX/issues/3.

I'm still working on https://github.com/mkhan45/CalcuLaTeX. I'm hoping for it to be ready for my chemistry quiz next week. I've created a very basic web interface via WASM here: https://mkhan45.github.io/CalcuLaTeX-Web/.

Interesting! I wrote an assembler for the 6502 a while ago that works along the same lines. It supports running unit tests from the command-line, has a built-in 6502 emulator, uses the language server protocol to allow refactoring and syntax highlighting in VS Code and even hooks the VS Code debugger up to Vice.

Still working on mos, my 6502 assembler + toolchain. I've spent some evenings getting up to speed with the Debug Adapter Protocol, which allows me to provide a debugger in supported IDEs (like Visual Studio Code). Currently I'm wiring up the VICE emulator to this.

I've just released version 0.2.0 of MOS, my assembler for 6502 CPUs. Apart from spending some additional time on docs, I've spent most of my time on building a Language Server and an initial VSCode extension that supports things like syntax highlighting, find definition, formatting, etc.

That CPU is still going strong. In fact, I'm currently building an assembler for the 6502 in Rust.

I just released version 0.1.0 of my 6502 assembler/formatter called MOS! Really happy about it, since it's the first side-project I've actually managed to get to this state in a VERY long time.

Having said that, you're welcome to follow the repo on GitHub.
