Hi all 🙂 I'm Elliot. I have a text-visual-hybrid code editor project called
Polytope in which I'm currently working on caret navigation in visual editors, and a local-first multiplayer editor creation api.
@Lu Wilson invited me to join this community... I should've joined long ago! Here's some history of my interest in the space: I found out about the FoC podcast at a coding club in Waterloo in 2019. I remember Ravi Chugh's Sketch-n-Sketch really caught my attention back then. Way before that, I think when I was getting more into hobby web development, coming from hobby game development, I watched Bret Victor's "Inventing on Principle" which inspired me. I love learning about people's FoC projects and visions. Many of you in this slack have really inspired me!
I'm currently doing some contracting, working on Polytope, learning some math, and figuring out what to do next in my career.
