Title: Hi HN!<p>I’m Alex from Parabola (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;parabola.io" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;parabola.io</a>). Parabola is a visual programming tool for creating functional data flows that everyone can use. It’s entirely drag-and-drop, handles data sizes much larger than a traditional spreadsheet, calculates everything live, and can run your flows on a schedule of your choosing.<p>I used to work in strategy consulting, doing data analytics for SMBs and Fortune 500 companies. The amount of time wasted on menial tasks was astounding. Things like cleaning data, generating custom reports, creating human workflows to solve shortcomings in third party tools, etc.<p>Non-technical people have to rely on doing things manually or using fragile spreadsheets that solve only part of their use cases. We don&#x27;t think everyone should have to learn to code in order to work productively (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;medium.com&#x2F;parabola-labs&#x2F;not-everyone-needs-to-learn-how-to-code-32f47ea7a171" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;medium.com&#x2F;parabola-labs&#x2F;not-everyone-needs-to-learn...</a>). That’s why we’re building the tools to help people stop wasting so much time on manual processes, and instead focus on their actual core competencies.<p>We’ve made some interesting decisions in the design of Parabola’s visual programming “language”. We’d love to hear what you think and are happy to discuss our thought process in the comments.
