Hey all,

we’re publishing this whitepaper that describes a new concept for building serverless microapps called Actors, which are easy to develop, share, integrate, and build upon. Actors are a reincarnation of the UNIX philosophy for programs running in the cloud.

Our goal is to make Actors an open web standard. We’d love to hear your thoughts.

Here’s the corresponding GitHub repo: https://github.com/apify/actor-whitepaper
