UsTaxes VS LIPS

I’ve been using https://github.com/ustaxes/UsTaxes ; cross-checked with my manual form filing and it’s spot on. Print and mail and save the hassle :)

There is an AGPL program to fill the 1040 form. https://github.com/ustaxes/UsTaxes

Yes.

We (PublicDomainCompany.com) are going to do it if someone doesn't beat us to it first. Will be a 2023 project for us (https://github.com/breck7/copypastetaxes).

I've been a supporter of https://github.com/ustaxes/UsTaxes and they are doing amazing grunt work that will be a big part of the solution.

Also, here's a great image of the first income tax return:

Sort of tangentially, I'm working with other contributors on https://ustaxes.org, an open source tax filing webapp https://github.com/ustaxes/UsTaxes.

Currently, many Federal tax forms are supported, as well as tax filing for the state of Illinois. Filing for Oregon and California is under development!

Anyone can write tax filing software. There are free and open source solutions. Given how much good it would bring to "the people", more developers should work on this. https://github.com/ustaxes/UsTaxes

I'm working with other contributors on https://ustaxes.org, an open source tax filing webapp https://github.com/ustaxes/UsTaxes. The goal is to make tax filing free for everyone.

Sweet, I'll have to give that a go :)

Another option in browser land is lips[0], which exclusively targets a js backend.

For Scheme implementations there are LIPS and biwascheme. I haven't done more than play around with them, so I can't really give an informed opinion about pros and cons or favorites.

Your example revealed a bug in my Scheme interpreter. This is an example that fails to match:

In my interpreter, LIPS Scheme, vector literal syntax is created using a syntax extension, a token that is mapped to a function or a macro. So you can use things like this:

I'm not sure about other Scheme interpreters but in my interpreter LIPS Scheme, there is (env) function that returns a list of symbols. You can also access environment objects e.g. (current-environment) return object that is used internally. And you can even access the scope chain because the env object has __parent__ property that returns the parent scope.

Few of my Open Source projects: * jQuery terminal * LIPS Scheme * Gaiman * Sysend * Wayne

(define promise (--> '>(fetch "https://lips.js.org/") (then (lambda (res) (res.text))) (then (lambda (text) (. (text.match #/\s*([^>]+?)\s*<\/h1>/) 1)))))

ngl when I first saw the headline my first thought was, “Wait, bring CAR into JavaScript? Make it a Lisp? But hasn't it already been done?”

Languages like Biwa Scheme and LIPS Scheme are good for running Scheme in the browser. But I would prefer compiling Scheme code to JavaScript in the server, then serving the compiled JavaScript image to the browser.
