What if you had *full stack types* for SPAs built with tech like #React, #Inertia, #Vue, #Svelte... but all of the power #AshFramework and #ElixirLang on the backend? Well, you can now.😉 hexdocs.pm/ash_typescri...

When gleam supports structs 😭

Typescript supports elixir structs?

Perhaps I don't know what kind of gleam integration you have in mind? We serialize to/from JSON for typescript. A gleam integration would require similar serialization, but in a situation where no serialization would be necessary for structs.

An "ash on the server, gleam on the client" situation though... that would be possible. Is that what you had in mind? Would it be desirable?

It'd be cool if it'd be possible to call the RPC from any language. I currently work on a project with Elixir server and Elixir client, for example. So I guess I mean language agnostic RPC. Obviously, JS/TS is the most needed, and perhaps the other langs not so much, but that'd be cool.

Exactly as I suspected. Maybe what is needed is a doc for the HTTP API and task to generate some kind of a spec of available actions, resources, types, etc. Then it should be trivial to LLM-gen a client for any language. BTW, do you plan pubsub/events/rpc over sockets kind of stuff?
