What if there was an Online Julia Repl on discourse itself, so that you could try out suggestions super quick by copy pasting what others are saying?
Sorry if i sound too lazy
There are sites like replit but I do not know how much Julia support exists there.
Interesting idea. I think the utility of this depends on how one usually starts Julia. For example, all I have to do is Ctrl-Alt-t
jl<Enter>
and I’m ready to go. Though if there are specific packages that need to be added then I also cd
into a tmp/
directory and pkg> activate .
, so maybe in those cases a built-in REPL could be more convenient.
Recently i have developed habit of using discourse on phone, and reading long conversations with suggestions on code snippets. It would be cool to test it there and there itself !
Who’s going to pay for the compute to enable dozens (?) of people a day to do using Plots; plot(some_data)
, or even worse activate --temp; add DifferentialEquations; ...some calculation...
?
A better solution for you is likely:
Presumably this would require a JS/wasm Julia interpreter.
Wow, I did not knew about this tool UserLand. Thanks for letting me know !
