The “Dad” Problem
My kids are navigating the ways of middle/high school: one is deep in ionic bonding in Chemistry, another one is grappling with graphing sine waves in Pre-Calculus.
I can explain these concepts to them with words, or I can scribble on a napkin (which I love doing), but some concepts just need to move. They need to be visualized. I could write a Python program or a D3.js visualization for every single problem, but that takes too long, even when done directly with “the big 4“.
I needed a way to say: “Show me a covalent bond in H₂O” and have the visualization write itself, test itself, run itself, and show me that interactive covalent bond moving step by step.
Great fit for a “Skill” I thought and built Salvador that can do this.
