Ask HN: Is there any product like Hypercard?
I still don't see what hypercard did 25 years ago. It gave non-programmers an ability to build quasi-programmed documents, called cards. As I see now, hypertext protocol and its usage is limited to authoring mails and seeing some pages built by specialists, called as web developers. Many web developers (including me) can not give proper justice to the hypertext powered documents, so called sites.
Can we celebrate Hypercard's 25th anniversary by creating web authoring tool that non-programmers can use to create beautiful sites containing images, videos and off course formatted (styled) text content? I know there would be many claims to such an ability. But looking at what Apple's world view of creating something that is easy to use and JUST WORKS, I don't see any web tool can ever come anywhere near to Hypercard.
