Kudos, this really feels like one of those ideas whose time has come.
I'm tinkering on something very similar for longer than I care do admit, except I took on the daunting task of replacing RDF, and I'm sufficiently disillusioned by years of frontend work to base the UI off of TUIs and HyperCard. One thing that I experienced as a huge hurdle for semantic web technology is the lack of browser APIs to actually work with RDF/JSON-LD/Semantic Web data. There's really no complete and straightforward way to transfer, store and query semantic data in the fronted. JSON-LD works around this by exposing the graph as a tree regular old JS can work with, but that looses a lot of the flexibility and power of the original graph model, e.g. path independence and proper queries. I'll definitely keep an eye on how your ideas and solutions evolve! |
