Frank 7.3.3 shipped last week, closing out a run of work that gives Frank a genuine hypermedia and linked-data story — five new companion libraries, plus a set of core changes.

In my last post, I wrote that hypermedia might be sufficient for both humans and AI agents.

I recently read Sir Tim Berners-Lee‘s (@timbl) memoir This is for Everyone: The Unfinished Story of the World Wide Web.

Tic-tac-toe is a game a child can play.

Frontend development has become a monstrosity, and Frank.Datastar is my response.

An HTTP resource has one handler per method: one GET, one POST, and so on.

Authorization in Frank should read like part of the resource, not ceremony bolted onto the side.

OpenAPI support in Frank has been a long time coming.

Frank 7.2.0 adds a small extensibility point that lets companion libraries attach behavior to an endpoint without changing, or even knowing about, the core.

FSharp.Data.JsonSchema is three packages instead of one now, the old name still works, and a pile of bugs that had been open for years are finally fixed.
