Real personal computing, that benefits end-users on their terms. In the Future of Coding community, we often use the analogy of "home cooking". As in, we have restaurants & professional chefs but not enough home cooks in computing. Tools & processes are super different when you're cooking for yourself / family vs for a restaurant!

There are a few trends that are tiptoeing on the edges here:

- tools for thought / creative tools (Muse, Nodes.io, Mem, etc)

- end-user programming (people trying everything from visual PL's to simpler / more constrained programming interfaces)

- local-first software (https://www.inkandswitch.com/local-first/)

- web3 - I'm biased here and a bit skeptical of the fervor here, but matches some of the ethos / philosophy

- more customizable / hackable personal computing hardware (https://frame.work/)

- spatial + tactile computing so the body can participate in the thinking process (instead of only the 'head'): https://dynamicland.org/

- explorables, games / interactive viz to quickly transfer rich context: https://explorabl.es/

- video games, often indie ones, are exploring deep ideas: see Zachtronics games, Jonathan Blow's games, some of Annapurna Interactive funded games, etc. So many!

- open data: better end-user data tools so anyone can understand the systems around them
