83: David Khourshid on XState, Statecharts, and the Future of Designer—Coder Collaboration

David Khourshid is the man bringing statecharts to the frontend. We talk about XState, model-based testing with xstate-test, and the future designer/coder integration
For the month of february, we're chatting exclusively with Reactathon speakers. You can hear more from David on the topic state-charts for UI development this march. Reactathon is a top React conference in the heart of San Francisco. David and I will be there, chewing people's ears off about better designer tooling. Get a ticket at reactathon.com.
