I spent a few minutes looking at this. Most of the examples look like many Sage interacts - sliders controlling plots or graphics. Disclaimer: I'm always on the lookout for ways to use graphics as graph editors, so I'm interested in using these sorts of tools for *input* and not just output. For those who want to peek here's three examples I selected, plus what I would think of as pros and cons relative to the usefullness for Sage. Typical example: http://jsxgraph.uni-bayreuth.de/wiki/index.php/Power_Series JQuery controls: http://jsxgraph.uni-bayreuth.de/wiki/index.php/Circles_on_circles Potential for graph theory: Controls are movable points in 2-D http://jsxgraph.uni-bayreuth.de/wiki/index.php/Include_JSXGraph_together_with_jQuery Pros: LGPL license Fairly smooth updates as sliders vary Good browser support Zoom and pan well-supported Plays nicely with JQuery Cons: Must use Javascript for defining mathematical functions Very limited library of math functions (about 20 functions) Duplicates Sage interacts No obvious facility to use as an input device? Nothing for 3-D?
