Notes on:

• APL
  • Additional APL Resource: APL History
• J
• Kap (a new lang, in progress, uses APL characters and very similar to it!):
  • repo: https://codeberg.org/loke/array
  • its Array Editor GUI demo looks cool of spreadsheet-like features: https://blog.dhsdevelopments.com/array-languages-vs

List of open-source array languages (APL & derivatives) - NOTE: Dyalog APL is proprietary so not listed, but some open source APL implementations are there.

Tooling

• Dyalog APL Link -- new recommended way to save code in text files instead of workspace files. Version control can be done externally via Git.
• This also looks cool (spreadsheet-like GUI editor for K language): https://github.com/chrispsn/mesh-spreadsheet

Common Resources

• Array Portal - search idioms for both APL and J
