Hi HN! We are thrilled to share a sneak peek of https://openexus.com after months of work. You can try out the cool demos on the front page!

The idea is to build a platform and community for composable building blocks where anyone can easily create, find and connect different modules to create dynamic and interactive apps, sites, dashboards, and docs. This can be done without using a single line of code.

Key principles of what we are building:

1) True composability that enables infinite possibilities — Modules today are either too complex to be used only by developers (e.g. NPM packages) or too simplistic where they are usually used as an embed in isolation. We are establishing a modularization foundation that is powerful enough for developers to express functionalities, simple enough for anyone (even kids) to use, and flexible enough to build sophisticated creations.

2) Smart connect without code — All logic can be clearly expressed by simply drawing lines. Depending on the data type and other characteristics of the connector, we can figure out how the connection should behave. For example, triggers can only be connected to actions, and data connectors that fetch from APIs can be defined as directional read-only connectors.

3) Open-connections for instant forking — Forking today is a time-consuming complex endeavor. Even a simple change requires many layers of code understanding. Instead of open-source code, we see a future of open-source connections, where remixing simply means adding new blocks and re-wiring them.

What we are building can be described as NPM for non-developers, connectable Lego blocks for the Internet, or Minecraft for non-game creations. Our focus is to create a community where we can share ideas and innovations.

We are super excited about the possibilities of this platform, especially when we incorporate AI. We will be releasing tutorials, opening up the playground, and sending out invites in the coming weeks. If you are eager to try out our tooling and create your own building blocks, drop us an email! We would love to hear your feedback!
