This is awesome. Great job! I love the simplicity of the whole thing. I was able to figure out the tool in a minute. Compare that to professional software, which can have a scary complexity. I think it'd be a great educational tool. Kids would love to experiment with it.

Your words mean a lot to me.

In designing and implementing Trangram, ease-of-use ranks high on my list of priorities, alongside functionality and safety.

Just as you mentioned, one of my primary motivations was to facilitate the creation of educational materials, which I was particularly inspired by experiences while watching The Power Of A Mathematical Picture

I've designed Trangram as more than just an editor; it's a platform intended to democratize content sharing. Every individual should have the opportunity to disseminate valuable content to others, whether through a simple link or embedded HTML code (allowing for easy integration on personal blogs or websites).

My aspiration is for Trangram to evolve into a secure and enriching environment for all, including children, fostering a space where learning flourishes.

Good luck on your mission! As a kid/teenager who grew up creating animations and games on Flash (from v2 to v5) I've always felt that since then only the people really into animation have been able to play with it, the tools are not approachable, you need to learn a lot before you can do the basics which were quite straightforward with Flash.

I really hope Trangram gets some traction so you have the time and resources to further develop it, it's a tool that has potential to make the world a nicer place :)

Thank you so much for your support and kind words! With support like yours, we're optimistic about the future and excited to see where Trangram goes.

Same experience. Very easy to use and plenty of functionality.

What is safety?

By safety, I means a safe environment for users especially children to browse and learn content shared on Trangram, as well as security aspects including authentication, authorization and data privacy.

Love it. Tutorial would be lovely, and grid, and lock object...

How do you make a new frame

We're committed to creating tutorials in the future when we have the capacity to do so. In the meantime, I encourage and welcome anyone who enjoys sharing their knowledge from using Trangram to create videos for others to learn from.
