Description : a transient-based porcelain for Emacs Calc
Casual is an opinionated Transient-based porcelain to support the
casual usage of Emacs Calc.
While Emacs Calc has an embarrassingly rich feature set, for many
users this capability is inaccessible due the overwhelming number of
keybindings used to access them. These keybindings have a steep
learning curve that is quickly lost if not in constant use.
Menus are a user interface (UI) affordance that offer users
discoverability and recall. Providing a hierarchical menu UI over Calc
greatly improves its casual use.
Here is a nice introduction into casual:
