Other software editors live in this world where the only thing we've ever had is text. It enables a real-time level of debugging, you write way fewer problems into the software. It's interesting, being able to see how data flows through your program, even so far as taking your code and seeing variables get filled in. What this opens up is a new level of connection to the software. It allows you to modify a running program. Light Table removes that blindfold and applies real-time feedback.
That disconnect is hugely impactful, it means what we end up doing most of the time, instead of doing little things and trying them, we make huge changes and hope to god that we got it right. The time to be able to see a change when coding could be anywhere from 30 seconds to 8 hours. You make a stroke on the canvas, you don't see the result.
A good analogy is like, being a developer today is being a painter with a blindfold. The main problem, is building software is way harder than it should be and it's really inefficient. They have a streamlined process, now it's all done, so go do your stuff.ĬG: Light Table is a new environment for creating software. We didn't have to worry about, how in the world do you set up a company. That's the most valuable thing we got out of it, beyond the fact it also let us focus. It's not even them giving you anything necessarily or opening doors, it's learning from people you would never have the opportunity to see. Y Combinator opens up opportunities, not even to just investors, but to meet people you might not otherwise meet and learn from them. This time, it was really great, we certainly learned a lot. It often indicates a user profile.ĬG: I had applied with another guy a few times ago with a completely different idea. Account icon An icon in the shape of a person's head and shoulders.
