Hi everyone, Corey here from Eve. We've been in the trenches for a while, so I've been working to document a backlog of progress.<p>A lot has changed even in the ~3 months since the work in this post occurred, so it's not reflective of where we are now. But I'll stick around here to answer any questions relevant to this post or Eve in general.<p>Edit: I wasn't anticipating this would be on HN today, but it is, so here is part 2 with the rest of the story: <a href="http://incidentalcomplexity.com/2016/06/22/mar2/" rel="nofollow">http://incidentalcomplexity.com/2016/06/22/mar2/</a>
Its great to see the regular updates om Eve now. I hope these posts get enough exposure as they used to get when Chris Granger posted them to hacker news himself
I was a little confused with the two posts when read together...I get that the GUI isn't yet complete, so I don't think I'm meant to understand what the grid demo is showing or how it connects to the backend...but in the second section, a lot of attention is given to the REPL...is one of the foreseen use cases that users will be entering data via REPL?
The MS Access is strong with this one.<p>But actually, while it's completely useless on a PC, a usable graphical environment is clearly needed for the tablet market, so I don't understand why they are so insistent on pushing the 4GL / application builder approach from the early 90ies.
For those confused like myself, this is about Eve, an excel-like development environment from the person who brought you LightTable. This is not about Eve Online.
