In my late 20s, amidst the emotional turmoil of trying to figure life out, I had many intimate conversations with the universe.
In one conversation, I shared my dream to live at the top floor of a small apartment with a group of close friends...
...and to shape the primordial light of the big bang with our bare hands (a bit out there, I know).
Many years later, I went for a late night walk and thought back to that conversation.
I realized that my current profession, web dev, is shaping light into things that people can use.
The problem with modern web dev is you're usually operating at such a deep level in the code that you lose sight of actually shaping light.
Hyperspace brings you closer than any other technology I've experienced to shaping light with your bare hands.
It does this in a simple, yet elegant way: it perists all changes the end user makes to HTML documents, turning each document into a malleable object.
It's a step closer to the future of truly intuitive software development: digital objects that are as easy to shape and manipulate as physical objects.
