QuantumSheet

GITHUB.COM

QuantumSheet is a web based computer algebra system, or as they like to call it themselves, a fancy calculator. This tool was built using Sympy, a Python algebra system that allows you to solve equations, perform calculus and a whole host of other algebraic functions. QuantumSheet uses Pyodide, which brings the Python runtime to the browser. Finally, MathLive, a TypeScript UI for maths input is used to provide the front-end to the SymPy calculation engine. This is an amazing demonstration of the promise of WebAssembly, allowing developers to use powerful and established modules and libraries within their applications.
