Composability with other tools

Metadata
Highlights
- Better yet, none of these apps have to know anything about each other. All they need to know is the protocol. This makes the set of possible workflows between apps an open set. Interoperability is very likely to emerge under these conditions.
-
If a tool supports composition with other tools, it supports open-ended evolution. At that point, all of the other ways in which it might be terrible become incidental, because an evolutionary system will always be more expressive than one that isn’t.
-
Nothing else can widen the potential of creative tools as rapidly as composability with other tools. It’s not even close.
