[eyelidlessness]

In order: 42 years old; 17 years (at least? starting to lose count!); PHP -> JavaScript -> Clojure/ClojureScript -> TypeScript.

Perhaps more pertinent to the topic, in my last job I implemented the bulk of an XForms implementation. Pertinent because XForms has a lot of conceptual overlap with what I’ve seen in XMLUI so far.

I think it’s worth clarifying my point above with that context: it isn’t the concept that I find novel, at all. It’s the sheer depth and breadth of declarative expressiveness that I see in the examples. Maybe the best way I can put it is that what seems novel to me is how much novelty it appears to enable, before breaking through the abstraction to give it more capabilities.
