folkjs

⚠️ This project is in an active research phase. It hasn't been published to NPM yet, but our work is open and you're more than welcome to take a look, poke around, and try things out.

Explorations

How do we make the web feel more alive and soft?
How can we more easily connect web pages and their data?
How easily can we turn a HTML document into a spatial canvas and vice versa?
What would it look like if the browser had primitives for building spatial canvases?
How can someone annotate, re-layout, and program web pages they did not make or distribute?
How can we compose visual programming interfaces, hypermedia, and LLMs that work on any web page?
