A framing from that podcast that helped me better understand the role of Bonsai is that it's really a framework for building incremental distributed state machines.

This framing is also in the post. From the readme:

> Bonsai itself -- this library -- is actually more generic than the above makes it sound. It allows you to build general-purpose incremental, composable state machines. Bonsai_web builds on top of that core library, specializing it for interactive browser-based UIs, but we also have Bonsai_term for building interactive terminal-based UIs.

The docs are a bit sparing but if you read the source its pretty cool to see how they did this.

The entirety of modern financial markets is simply incremental distributed state machines.

The value proposition about this web framework over things like React, Phoenix, etc is that it uses incremental computing right ? Using Jane Street's incremental computing library. I see it being used at https://github.com/janestreet/bonsai/blob/f31661450eb133fe89...
