My flexbox layout, 19 Apr
I recently had to reverse engineer the layout of this site. I created it once upon a time, but had forgotten the details, and to save myself the work five years from now when I have to do it again, I’m noting down what I learned about how it works. (read..)
Try it: function/class coverage report, 15 Apr
I’ve added experimental function and class coverage reports to coverage.py. I’d like feedback about whether they behave the way you want them to. (read..)
Is this for autistic people?, 20 Mar
Special Olympics swim practices just started. A new young athlete joined us, and he asked a question that has stuck with me: is this for autistic people? (read..)
Does Python have pointers?, 11 Mar
People sometimes ask, “Does Python have pointers?” I hate to be the typical senior engineer, but this is one of those questions where the answer is, it depends what you mean by pointer. (read..)
and many more..

I maintain a few Python packages, including:

Coverage.py: The code coverage tool for Python
Cog: Small bits of Python computation for static files
Dinghy: A GitHub activity digest tool
Scriv: Changelog management tool
WatchGHA: Live display of current GitHub action runs
Aptus: Mandelbrot fractal viewer

I've also made a few informal projects, some mathy art, some small utilities:

Flourish is a harmonograph explorer. Blog post and live site.
Stilted is a toy PostScript implementation. Blog post.
Truchet images explores Truchet tiles, and rendering images with them. Blog post.
Gefilte Fish is a Python-based DSL for writing Gmail filters. Blog post.
Pydoctor shows details of your Python environment, for troubleshooting.
pkgsample, an simple example of how to package a Python project.

aptus's Issues

Alternative distribution channel via conda

@nedbat Thanks for this inspired tool! Would you be open to the idea of creating a conda package out of it, so that we can have a second channel of distribution besides pip? I'm happy to do the work.

"pip install aptus" fails asking for numpy — setup_requires missing?

Hi Ned,

when trying to install aptus I get this error:
