Code Editors

  • Code Bubbles / πŸŽ₯ video. The essential goal of this project is to make it easier for developers to see many fragments of code (or other information) at once based on collections of lightweight, editable fragments called bubbles.
  • Code Canvas / πŸŽ₯ video. Is a new user experience for Visual Studio 2010 that provides an infinite zoomable surface for software development.
  • Light Table / repo / πŸŽ₯ video. The next generation code editor.

Datalog Inspired Environments

  • Eve / repo / πŸ•°οΈ history. Programming designed for humans.
  • Mech lang / repo. Language for developing data-driven, reactive systems like animations, games, and robots. It makes composing, transforming, and distributing data easy, allowing you to focus on the essential complexity of your problem.

Debugging Tools

  • CodeCrumbs / repo. Learn, design or document codebase by putting breadcrumbs in source code.
  • Code Bubbles / πŸŽ₯ video. The essential goal of this project is to make it easier for developers to see many fragments of code (or other information) at once based on collections of lightweight, editable fragments called bubbles.
  • Debugger Canvas / πŸŽ₯ video. Code bubbles for debugging in Visual Studio.

Direct Manipulation Graphics Editors

Interactive video player with code

  • Scrimba. Play around with the instructors code any time, right in the player.
  • Vimsical / repo. A version control system and coding environment for fine-grained change tracking.

Interactive visualizations

  • g9 / repo. Automatically interactive graphics.

Live programming environments for music

Notebooks

  • Carbide
  • Hyperhaskell / repo. Graphical interpreter for the programming language Haskell. You use worksheets to enter expressions and evaluate them. Results are displayed graphically using HTML.

Operating Systems

  • Desktop Neo. rethinking the desktop interface for productivity.
  • elementary OS. The fast, open, and privacy-respecting replacement for Windows and macOS
  • Ideal OS / repo / βœ‰οΈ mailing list. Mockups of an ideal desktop operating system / environment.
  • Leap Technology / πŸŽ₯ video. The revolutionary navigation technology invented by Jef Raskin.
  • Mercury. Is a speculative reimagining of the operating system as a fluid experience driven by human intent.
  • Project Oberon. Project Oberon is a design for a complete desktop computer system from scratch. Its simplicity and clarity enables a single person to know and implement the whole system, while still providing enough power to make it useful and usable in a production environment.

Other

  • CDG Labs πŸ’€ / Github.
  • Chorus / πŸ•°οΈ history / πŸŽ₯ video. Exploring the middle ground between spreadsheets and programming.
  • Dark lang / blog. We want to make it possible to build a complete scalable app in an afternoon.
  • Dynamicland. Inventing a new computational medium where people work together with real objects in the real world, not alone with virtual objects on screens.
  • xoL / repo / πŸ“š Concept design. Graphics based programming language.
  • Human Advancement Research Community (HARC) πŸ’€ / YC. HARC’s mission is to ensure human wisdom exceeds human power, by inventing and freely sharing ideas and technology that allow all humans to see further and understand more deeply.
  • IPLD / repo. IPLD is a set of standards and implementations for creating decentralized data-structures that are universally addressable and linkable. These structures will allow us to do for data what URLs and links did for HTML web pages.
  • Quorum / repo. Evidence-oriented programming language.
  • Tinyland / repo. A very, very small Dynamicland.
  • Unison / repo. Next-generation programming platform.
  • Valaa / repo. Front-end and back-end development joined a la Meteor.
