Cordis Showcase

Cordis Showcase is an interactive tour of cordis-ios, a Swift port of the cordis plugin framework. Everything in the app is built from plugins. Each card on the dashboard is put there by a plugin, and it disappears on its own when that plugin stops. Plugins declare the services they need: when a service goes away, everything that depends on it unloads, and when it comes back, they load again. Nothing has to be cleaned up by hand. A ten-step guided tour lets you see this happen: • Withdraw a service and watch its consumers wait • Change a plugin's configuration and see it reload • Send an invalid configuration and see it rejected • Add a missing service and watch a waiting plugin load • Recover a plugin that failed to start • Run two versions of one service side by side in isolated realms • Disable a whole group of plugins at once • Restart a service that holds state • Reset everything to the defaults in one reconciliation Beyond the tour you can explore freely: • Plugins: every plugin with its live state, an on/off switch, a JSON config editor and the list of effects it has installed • Services: which plugin provides each service, and who uses it • Timeline: the framework's internal events and logs as they happen Credits cordis is created by Shigma and the cordiverse contributors (github.com/cordiverse/cordis). Its design is described in the paper "A Programming Paradigm for Spatiotemporal Composability" by Yifan Shi, Wei Zhang and Tianyi Cui (arXiv:2608.25512). The Swift port and this app are open source at github.com/eovidiu/cordis-ios. cordis-ios is an independent port and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the cordis authors. The app collects no data and makes no network requests.
