On April 26th, 2024, the Scicloj [visual-tools group](https://scicloj.github.io/docs/community/groups/visual-tools/) had its 24th meeting.

In this meeting, Adam James presented [badspreadsheet](https://github.com/adam-james-v/badspreadsheet) - a Clojure Spreadsheet for building design tools.  
We also briefly discussed the broader potential of [HTMX](https://htmx.org/) for building interactive data visualizations in Clojure.
