  1. formkit

    The form framework for coding agents

    šŸ“£ Howdy, I’m Justin Schroeder (author of FormKit and AutoAnimate) — I just released a new experimental JavaScript library for rendering interfaces declaratively. A few of the talking points:

  3. auto-animate

    A zero-config, drop-in animation utility that adds smooth transitions to your web app. You can use it with React, Vue, or any other JavaScript application.

  4. arrow-js

    The first UI framework for the agentic era — tiny, performant, with WASM sandboxes for safe code execution.

    Demos are all a bit smushed together - https://github.com/justin-schroeder/arrow-js/blob/master/docs/demos/

  5. Alpine.js

    A rugged, minimal framework for composing JavaScript behavior in your markup.

    Is there any interesting difference between this and Alpine.js (aside from the fact that Alpine is tightly coupled to the DOM)?

  6. elite

    build HTML declaratively using JS 548 bytes (by erf)

    I was making my own tiny lib (https://github.com/erf/elite) to build HTML declaratively but had to rebuild the changed parts. This looks much more clever in the way it handles state, maybe i could borrow some ideas, combine them or just use this :D (need to do some more research..)

  7. Apache Arrow

    Apache Arrow is the universal columnar format and multi-language toolbox for fast data interchange and in-memory analytics

    I think the naming will likely cause some confusion with apache arrow. My initial thoughts when reading "Introducing ArrowJS" was a new port of the apache arrow spec.
