Programmable Matter
A dynamic data-driven document development environment (DDDDDE)
Did you ever wish your document editor were more like an IDE? Your IDE more like a spreadsheet? Your spreadsheet more like a database? No?
Programmable Matter is a "document development environment": a rich text document editor that supports embedded code. You can use code to assemble documents from components, generate documents from structured data, and even build simple UIs.
Like an IDE, it provides live feedback about your code (syntax highlighting, error reporting, code suggestions) and navigation of the document and code structure.
Like a spreadsheet, it provides live update of results as you make changes to documents, data, and code; and in the presence of code errors, the correct parts still run.
Like a database, it provides means of defining structured data tables and working with them through a uniform interface.
Status
Work in progress! Lots of unfinished parts, tons of bugs!
