It's an IDE, but it allows building full GUI apps. It's itself written in Lua using wxlua/wxwidgets toolkit, so has access to the majority of the modules availables in wxwidgets. The binaries are also bundled with the IDE for all supported platforms, so you can develop and package your own application in the same way.


FWIW there is ongoing work with good progress to add websocket support to redbean (https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan/pull/967)


Good to know. But the OP library adds even more (http2, MQTT).

I've yet to actually build anything with redbean but the more functionality it has, the better.

The project I'd like to explore with it would be to create a lua-based CLI toolkit a la the goodness that charmbracelet is building https://github.com/charmbracelet. Too many distractions atm and I don't have need of that CLI functionality so the impetus is lacking.


True, but I take loading a dishwasher as a puzzle to do it in the most compact/efficient way, which helps with adding enjoyment to the process.


Look great! I've done something similar with exactly the same approach of fully reevaluating Love functions, which allows changing the app behavior on the fly: http://notebook.kulchenko.com/zerobrane/live-coding-with-lov.... This is only running on a desktop (as it's controlled from the ZeroBrane Studio IDE running on the same machine) and allows both changing the source code and using virtual sliders on any numbers in the script to drag left/right to affect the behavior.

It was very interesting to work on that and to see the behavior of the script changing in real time. I've seen some of the users creating simple applications in a matter of minutes using this approach; here is one that was done at about the same time as the Love demo (although it's using Gideros SDK): https://notebook.kulchenko.com/zerobrane/gideros-live-coding...


I find it easier to read if it's something like "22% with $5 minimum per month".


No, to my knowledge cosmopolitan doesn't provide any special provisions to support this, so you'd have to build it yourself.


FWIW, there is ongoing work on dlopen; it was introduced 2 weeks ago (https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan/commit/5e8c928f1a37349a...) and continued after that.


It will complicate the control of the truck and add more components (increasing the cost).


Obituary. necrolog is coming from French and is used in some languages, Russian for example.


There is a similar sign next exit 17 on 405N prohibiting existing and re-entering back.
