[self post] Extensible TypeScript with Object Algebras (jnkr.tech)

I think object algebras have huge potential to improve the way complex software is written but I've never seen them used in practice. I think one reason why is that the research paper which introduced them is pretty hard to read. This post is my attempt to change that.

I've been working on this post off and on for like two years so I'm really excited to share it with people. It is very long. There's a lot of ground to cover.

That’s an understandable criticism. I do plan on writing a more involved example in the future, but this would be a two-hour-read if I had tried to include it. I’m hoping that introducing the basics on a very simple example will be a good stepping stone towards more involved ones.
