HyperCards

HyperCard was a hypermedia application developed by Apple Inc. in the late 1980s. It was designed to allow users to create and navigate through multimedia documents, combining text, graphics, sound, and video. The application was part of the HyperCard Stack, which consisted of a series of interconnected "cards" that users could navigate through using buttons and links.

HyperCard was notable for its user-friendly interface and ease of use, making it accessible to a wide range of users, including those without programming experience. It was used for a variety of purposes, including education, business, and personal projects. HyperCard stacks could be shared and distributed, allowing users to create and share interactive documents and applications.

HyperCard was discontinued in 1998, but its legacy lives on in the form of modern hypermedia applications and the concept of hypertext. The principles of HyperCard, such as the use of cards and links, have influenced the development of other hypermedia applications, including web browsers and multimedia authoring tools.
