TheWolfram Demonstrations Project is anopen-source collection ofinteractive programmes called Demonstrations. It is hosted byWolfram Research. At its launch, it contained 1300 demonstrations but has grown to over 10,000. The site won aParents' Choice Award in 2008.
Wolfram Research's staff organizes and edits the Demonstrations, which may be created by any user ofMathematica, then freely published[1] and freely downloaded.
The Demonstrations run inMathematica 6 or above and in WolframCDF Player, which is a free modified version ofWolfram Mathematica[2] and available forWindows,Linux, andmacOS[3] and can operate as a webbrowser plugin. Demonstrations can also be embedded into a website.[4] Each Demonstration page includes a snippet ofJavaScript code in the Share section of the sidebar.
The Demonstrations typically consist of a direct user interface to a graphic or visualization that dynamically responds to user actions. Each Demonstration also has a description of the concept. The website is organized by topic, for example: science,[5] art, and biology.
