Codestrates

Codestrates is a literate computing approach to developing interactive software inspired by interactive notebooks such as Jupyter notebook. However, in Codestrates, real-time collaboration is built in, it is possible to create stand-alone applications with persistent state, and to reprogram the functionality of the environment it self.

Codestrates builds on Webstrates. A web-page served from a Webstrates server is called a webstrate, and is a web-page where changes to the document object model (DOM) are persisted to the server and synchronized with other clients of the same page.

A codestrate is a webstrate that contains everything needed for developing new content, or reprogramming the codestrate it self. So, Codestrates provides a literate computing based development environment for Webstrates. On codestrates.org you can learn more about the Codestrates research project. Visit webstrates.net to learn more about Webstrates.

Installation

To use Codestrates you need access to a Webstrates server. Refer to the Webstrates documentation for instructions on how to set one up. To create a new codestrate on a Webstrates server go to:

https://yourserver.com/new?prototypeUrl=https://github.com/Webstrates/Codestrates/archive/master.zip

You can also click here to create a new codestrate on the demo.webstrates.net server.

Codestrate Packages

The codestrate prototype in this repository provides the basic functions to use Codestrates. For extended features like a drawing canvas or collaboration features Codestrates uses a package system: Features can be added and removed from a codestrate. See the Codestrate Packages repository for basic packages and more information.

Disclaimer

Codestrates is a research prototype in active development. Many features are still experimental and yet to be properly documented.
