Easel web graphics.

Image
Easel is sort of a new "Logo" turtle language for web pages. You can create graphics very easily. They have a server for the time being, so you do not have to host the software. That is a plus. The package comes with many demonstration html pages to work with. Below is a super basic example. Simple beginner web page. <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <script src="http://code.createjs.com/easeljs-0.7.0.min.js"></script> <script> function init() { var stage = new createjs.Stage("demoCanvas"); var circle = new createjs.Shape(); circle.graphics.beginFill("red").drawCircle(0, 0, 50); circle.x = 100; circle.y = 100; stage.addChild(circle); stage.addChild(new createjs.Shape()).setTransform(100,100).graphics.f("red").dc(0,0,50); stage.addChild(new createjs.Shape()).setTransform(100,100).graphics.f("green").dc(200,0,50); stage.update(); } </script> </head> <b...

Simple spreadsheet

Ever wanted to use a spreadsheet just for a quick calculation either on your computer or especially on a touch pad.  If nothing else it can be used as a learning to in building your own spreadsheets. Years ago I found this source code for a minimal spreadsheet from a CPM (forerunner of DOS operating systems) magazine. Typed it in and have been using it since. Of course many improvements have been made since the original code was typed in.  As I port the code to new platforms, there are always enhancements to be made. Everything now is web based so why not a basic spreadsheet. It is made up of three files that need to reside in the same directory. Major improvements can and should be made. Hope you enjoy this page as much as I did from the code I used years ago.  To be honest there are many good javascript spreadsheets (aka http://www.simple-groupware.de/cms/Spreadsheet/Home ), this article is just for example in case you wanted to dabble one of your own. --------...

One nice thing is that if you find a page with a tool that you need, under certain circumstances, you can save the page for later use. In some cases, if it is going into an educational environment, the advertisements have to go away. That is what was done with this web page. Before: After editing the source code: So there are more uses for knowing html, javascript, and css than for just creating your own web page.  One of many sites to get free code: http://www.free-javascripts.com.
