Like npm for GUI files.
A registry-shaped farm where interfaces are found, compared, and scored.
# gui.farm is a small place for GUI files to become
inspectable internet objects. Think npm or pip, but for
.gui files: a
registry-shaped farm where interfaces can be found, compared,
scored, and referenced.
gui.farm is the living index: the place tools can ask for scores, references, examples, and signals about what a GUI file is good for.
What grows here
Three things the farm does for every file you plant.
-
Score
Rate how useful, complete, clear, and renderable a GUI file is. Less pass/fail, more field report.
-
Reference
Ask the API for comparable examples, expected patterns, linked .gui references, and notes on what would make the file stronger.
-
Preview
Turn interface descriptions into living previews, documentation, inspections, and web-ready surfaces.
Coming soon
