Recho 0.2.0: Light Domain-Specific Code Editors for Coders and Artists
We released Recho 0.1.0 on October 7. Over the past two weeks, we received valuable feedback from friends. After discussion, we decided to rename Recho to Recho Notebook (#172).
By doing this, we want Recho to have a broader vision: a series of lightweight code editors for coders and artists across different domains. We believe text and code have the potential to become the most effective and flexible user interface, especially in the age of generative AI. To explore this potential, we’re developing different Recho Editors with different focuses:
- Recho Notebook: A reactive editor for algorithms and ASCII art
- Recho Multiple: An exploratory editor for creative coding
- Recho Melody: A chronological editor for coding with music
Note that we’re are not limited to code alone. Our editors also include graphical interfaces and even engage senses beyond the visual, such as sound. The key is treating code as a first-class citizen — introducing computational thinking while using visual thinking to assist us.
As our name Reactive Echo suggests: every keystroke deserves an echo, telling you you’re doing great and encouraging you to keep exploring. We want to live in the editor forever!
