Visual 555 Timer Calculator

Yet another 555 timer calculator. See this running live at visual555.tardate.com

Why? To play around with HTML5 simulation of the 555 timer circuit, and also demonstrate a grunt + coffeescript toolchain.

Installation for Development

To hack on this, you need a recent npm installed, then run:

$ npm install

Use grunt to just-in-time compile coffeescript sources as you work:

$ grunt watch

GitHub Pages Hosting

This repo uses GitHub Pages to host the site at visual555.tardate.com.

Sinatra Web App

There's also a sinatra wrapper that can be used to host the site at Heroku or similar services (what I used to do before moving to GitHub Pages).

To run the sinatra app locally:

$ bundle install
$ ruby web_app.rb
