Episode Notes

Devin Jameson joins Cause & Effect to talk about Foldkit, an Effect-first frontend framework inspired by Elm architecture. Devin and Johannes Schickling discuss why Foldkit takes a schema-first approach to frontend state, how it differs from React, how commands model side effects, and why this architecture may be especially useful in the age of AI-assisted coding.

Effect is an ecosystem of tools for building robust, production-grade applications in TypeScript.
