Love science and love node.js? What are some of your favourite tools and libraries for doing science with Javascript and Node? I know of Brain<https://github.com/harthur/brain>which is awesome, anything else?
I am interested in putting together some hands-on tools for exploring math and science with node.js. To that end I have written a 100% javascript pde-engine <https://github.com/bpostlethwaite/pde-engine> equation solver which can be used for visualization and investigation. For all those "javascript-is-bad-at-computation" naysayers, guess what, with Typed Arrays it's FAST! I have put it to use on my website <http://benpostlethwaite.ca/>as an example (just click the wave or heat buttons and click the screen & ignore everything else. All your clicks - sources - are visible to anyone else who is on the website along with the time evolving solution, huzzah node!). There is also a nice colormaps<https://github.com/bpostlethwaite/colormap> library I have ported over from matlab to pretty up visualization and D3 etc. My first idea is to expose some of the parameters in pde-engine within each time step and link them to a few of Substack's slideways<https://github.com/substack/slideways>. Then users could explore how changing parameters on the wave equation change it in real-time, with multiple users watching and contributing. Monkey Social, Learn, Do!
