Launch HN: Artemis (YC S22) – Use comments to give code an interactive interfaceHello Hacker News, we’re Austin, Manvir, and Kyle, the cofounders of Artemis Labs (https://artemisdevtool.com). We turn your in-line comments into a UI that can be used to visualize, test, document and share your code. This helps engineers and scientists quickly create quality scripts.Artemis was born in a Caltech robotics lab where I saw firsthand how much time and effort it took to create a quality script. Engineers were spending hundreds of hours making slide decks, hybrid Markdown / LaTeX documents, and demo GUIs just to make their tools accessible and usable by others. As someone who has been on the learning end of things, it can be nearly impossible to decipher or use even the smallest scripts if they lack quality documentation and interactive interfaces. Although these methods worked they were an incredible time sink and documentation became stale quickly.Artemis was devised as a solution to this problem. We wanted a tool that allows developers to create high-quality interfaces
