SurveyJS
Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

Project mention: Dynamic programming in Haskell: automatic memoization | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-06-20I develop calculang, a language for calculations. It converts concise formulae into Javascript.
Since calculation formulae are usually inherently pure, a `--memo` flag to the compiler memoizes the lot.
Many of my models are written in this recursive style and only work because of memoization. Sometimes other tricks are needed e.g. careful ordering of the calls, so that the memo is available before the stack breaks.
My first calculang example is a bouncing ball: the position at t depends speed and the position at t-1. With loops we'll usually discover the same thing, but it's so much harder to follow.
First-class memoization to proliferate this style is a really neat thing.
