Yes I think that's a good way of putting it. Extism's primary goal is universality. I think the idea of having a plug-in system that is truly universal is exciting. Now we can share and maybe even sell plugins into different ecosystems. No more silo'd environments. I hope to see a future where standards can be built on top of this and plug-ins can outlive the applications themselves. Think VSTs if you are into music software.
- Existenceblinks 4y agoThat's interesting, one of examples that is challenging is a universal html template plugin. I'd love to try if it's feasible. Basically it should be logic less like Liquid. The unsure part is the custom tag, can it be called by host or not.
- mycall 4y agoHow do you define a universal html template plugin? Doesn't <template> already fit the bill?
