[[id:c19c5a3b-dfb0-4f7f-961c-a387b925669f][See extensible, programmable computing environment examples]]. In each
case you can install or develop plugins/extensions for every purpose
I would like to create better general purpose environment with the
following properties:
-+ Makes lots of complex data intuitive to:
- - explore, understand
- - manipulate and compute on
++ Makes data and insights easy to discover, understand and
+ manipulate/transform.
+
++ Things are visual, realtime with immediate feedback.
-+ Extensively relying on:
- - [[https://www3.svjatoslav.eu/projects/sixth-3d/][Realtime 3D graphics]] with immediate feedback loop.
++ Extensively utilizes [[https://www3.svjatoslav.eu/projects/sixth-3d/][realtime 3D graphics]] and capabilities of human
+ visual perception.
