Simile Exhibit possible ?

At a glance

A community member discovered a project called SIMILE and is interested in integrating it, despite having limited knowledge of JavaScript, CSS, and HTML. The community members discuss SIMILE, with some expressing skepticism about its adoption and use case, while others suggest it could be used as a micro-apps tool or for faceted filtering and collection management. However, the webstudio community members indicate they are already addressing these needs through other means and do not plan to use SIMILE directly, but the original poster is welcome to experiment with it.

A long time ago I found this fantastic project SIMILE. It is still alive and kicking apparently.

I dont know anything about js. And only basic css and html. But it seems like you could integrate this ? Please bear with me, if there is something obvious that is not fitting your goals.

Maybe it should just be used on an individual project basis, but it seems also a core feature to me with the very fast filtering and facets.

Just a suggestion.

First post here. Very impressed by webstudio. Really good job so far.

on a first look, I don't know why we should care about it, it has very little adoption and the use case is not clear

seems like some kind of micro apps tool that could be used as widgets inside hmtl embed component
OOleg Isonen
yeah, its a dsl on top of html to build micro apps

webstudio itself won't use it in any way, but you are free to experiment if that works as html embed

Ok. Thank you for having a look at it. Use case would be facets and filtering for collections.
