Crunching Numbers with Lisp: Building a Math Training Machine

· 28.10.2026 06:06 · 0

I built the Math Training Machine for my child to practice arithmetic in a fast, distraction-free environment, but it's open for anyone to use.

Features

  • Instant Drills: Focused arithmetic practice with immediate correctness checks.
  • Minimal UI: Clean, zero-clutter interface to keep attention on solving problems.

Stack

  • Backend: Common Lisp, Clack, Conskivi database
  • Frontend: ClojureScript, Reagent

I'll clean up and publish the source code soon.
