I created an issue to form a @lexicon.community working group to explore the idea of Lexicon Lenses.

I’ve been really interested in the idea of exploring lexicon traits, type aliases, and rendering. @blaine.bsky.social spent some time with me this weekend and planted a seed. It was eye opening.

Lenses flip the script by allowing Lexicon developers to define a schema for transforming a Lexicon from one type to another. I think this could really be game changing because it also dramatically reduces the burden of AppViews to support an infinite number of types.

It could also have a big impact on things like record versioning. By providing a lexicon lens, you could upgrade / downgrade records in a reproducible way.

Really stoked for Traits. I think the composability of Lexicons, allows for so much flexibility.
