Dear All,<div><br></div><div>Data visualization for hMatrix is basically my main objective, but I would like to be flexible in the following ways: </div><div><br></div><div> * Have generic approach so other data types can be visualized with my library as long as the necessary instances are present.</div>
<div> * Define a generic standard to represent values in multiple types of plots. This way graphics output can be easily extended for more back ends (gtk, qt, gnuplot).</div><div><br></div><div>I am looking for alternatives. I will check GuiTV definitely, but currently I am considering the possibility of plotting data via javascript as suggested by Dough and using Haskell just to generate the values. I am using ghclive (<a href="https://github.com/shapr/ghclive" target="_blank">https://github.com/shapr/ghclive</a>) as fronted since the project looks nice and might be worth continuing it. Do you think there would be big objections if I continue working with that project since it was built for last GSoC?</div>

For me it would already be a huge advantage if I
<br>
could edit and re-evaluate expressions interactively (in a
comfortable GUI,
<br>
not ghci). Also a plot widget with sliders would also help. I
was wondering
<br>
if you know any reason the project has not been worked on for
various
<br>
months (as I see in the repo). Is there anyone working in this
project and
<br>
has a later version? I mean these are features that are even
available in
<br>
free math packages such as Sage.

I was actually the initial mentor for this project. I'm not
particularly happy about the result. As you can see, it hasn't
been picked up by anyone else, including me, and I think that's
because it missed the modularity goals I had in mind.

Indeed interactive notebook functionality is missed by many :-).<br>

Is it a good time to ask about current status of GuiTV, which is
possibly second closest to what Ernesto had in mind?<br>

Would be possible to ask Conal Elliot whether he is interested in
mentoring a project that would add widget(s) for hmatrix
visualisation?<br>
