"Landing page"
Hi! I've been toying with the idea of adding a few live demos of statecharts to the front page. Perhaps the Flickr search or a login flow, but I'm a bit hesitant because developers who visit will often have opinions on how search should work or how login screens should work, and…

Condition states
A concerned citizen opened an issue to notify me that the term "junction state" was missing from the glossary. And just this week I got around to writing some words about junctions, or condition states. Give it a read, and let me know what you think. I added a larger "usage"…

You're already writing state machines, they're just implicit!
@davidkpiano mentioned this as an important topic when he talks about Statecharts; and I realized that this wasn't explicitly mentioned on the web site, so yesterday, I added it: https://statecharts.github.io/benefit-explicit.html In other news, the site was linked to from a…
