    NoteCalc is a handy calculator trying to bring the advantages of Soulver to the web.

    I answered here: https://github.com/bbodi/notecalc3/issues/6#issuecomment-749...

    In a previous versions, only the changed areas were re-rendered, but the code was much more complex and error-prone, and it did not bring any performance improvement, so now I just rerender everything, still excellent performance but much simpler code.

    A calculator language. (by Kevinpgalligan)

    I actually started working on a CLI calculator a few days ago that sounds exactly like what you're looking for (it's for my own use): https://github.com/Kevinpgalligan/ka

    So far it just has variables and basic arithmetic. Other features on my roadmap: rational numbers, numbers getting simplified to the simplest type in the hierarchy that can represent them (so 4/2=2 but 4/3=4/3 until you coerce it to a float), units (and conversions), and lazy/smart combinatorics.

    What do you imagine the timezone DB would look like? I'd love to hear your ideas!

  • vimwiki

    Personal Wiki for Vim

    I've looked into this a bit and the closest thing I could find is in VimWiki, where certain plaintext patterns are dynamically replaced with other text without actually changing the buffer.

    See how line 11 dynamically changes in this video based on whether his cursor is on the line:

    I believe part of this behavior is defined here:

    https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki/blob/619f04f89861c58e5a64...

    I also second what JNRowe says about trying the new popup feature. I recently used this to run a script that calculates something based on where my cursor is currently at in the file:

        fun! CalculateFoodCalories()
