[–] jehna1 3y ago ↗ Hey! This is a side project I've been working on for a while. It's a free webapp that you can install to your phone's home screen to make it behave like a proper app.The app's design has prioritized:- Mobile first design- Fast startup time- Basic "back of the napkin" math operationsThe app is also fully open source with MIT license, and can be found at https://github.com/jehna/calc-o-pad [–] gardenhedge 3y ago ↗ How long have you been working on this? Oddly enough Calc apps have become popular on HN in the last week [–] jehna1 3y ago ↗ Yeah, quite a coincidence!According to my git history it took me 2,5 weeks to release this project.
