Is it possible to start drawing a simple slideshow,
for example a single example of algorithm animation,
and end up building (with very little effort) a simulator of a domain?
This is more or less the central idea behind FS.
As use case I try to build a visual example of the bubbleSort algorithm; from there I show how the FS user interface should look like and what kind of flexible behaviors (similar to refactoring) are possible in it.
You can also try to reproduce the bubbleSort example with an
implementation (prototype) of FreeSketch in javascript (
here , or the new version
)...
or even better the newest version: 0.7, code-name
"lima".
P.S. Today, 7/mar/2006, I added a new use case: the nano PC.
P.P.S. Today, 8/june/2006, there is a new version version (with some explanation in Italian, sorry :> ).
