Lies I was told about collaborative editing by Alex Clemmer
You've read the blog posts about "sync engines" and "local first" software. You want that kind of product experience too, so you install some fancy CRDT libraries and expect things to Just Work™. But it's not so simple after all.
First up:

Sergey is standing by the podium showing VSCode with his functionalscript tests running.
Next up Sergei from @nolock-social.bsky.social is telling us about FunctionalScript, a purely functional subset of JS.
One of the conventions is that test.f.js files are tests, and if they export a function it is treated as a test. Super easy to get started!
Evan is in front of a massive tv with his slides containing a diagram talking about Durable Execution.
Another exciting month of SeattleJS talks!
Starting us off today is Evan from GenSX telling us about durable execution for AI workflows. Unlike other durable execution approaches, GenSX uses JSX!
