Please review my site: https://alphapulse.org/ - this is a frontend mockup, most features don't work yet, just need UI feedback.
Home page: Quant news feed with academic papers users can implement, plus market review. Right-side widgets will be user-customizable (watchlists, news subscriptions) for account holders.
Develop page: IDE for power users with Monaco editor, tiled windows/tabs, and git integration.
Research page: The core value prop. Click the wrench icon to see the key feature - a button-driven Jupyter Notebook interface with "progressive disclosure." New users work with buttons that compile to notebook cells, with AI help to develop custom cells (by stringing together existing snippets, not writing new code). Power users can use full Jupyter interface. Both access a library of pre-made cells/snippets. When cells generate results, AI can analyze and suggest next steps. This type of work that will need to be done is incredibly open ended but I think this UI paradigm can handle it gracefully. Users can create new button-ui templates etc in the IDE as well.
Monitor page: You can watch simulated deployment here (may eventually add support for live), or step through and debug existing strategies with bar-by-bar replay and event logging. The page will need more work for things later but I can rearrange that when the time comes. For example, the user may want to subscribe to certain data feeds to stay up to date, and they'll need a place to configure that.
Goal: a community that's like HN but for quant, simplify analytics while reducing errors (via tested code) without sacrificing Jupyter's flexibility, and overall make a quant trading UI and workflow that's actually pleasant to use (my goal is to be able to use the button-ui from a tablet). Of course I don't expect any users to share their alpha, but a public forum for reproducing papers using a consistent backend seemed like a cool idea.
(Light theme looks better imo but got brightness complaints)
