I recommend it to people struggling with math, that website taught me calculus way better than my TA could.

I like it, but I wish there were an open source alternative available
there are, but not in terms of usability. Closest is probably sagemath but it’s bit of a learnong curve whereas wolframalpha is pretty much ready to go or at least learn-it-while-using.
I haven’t used it for teaching or concepts. It is useful for some calculations as it can convert integral equations into special functions and do simplifications/unit conversions. But in my experience, you do need some background knowledge to check it if you are relying on the natural language parsing.
