What to expect when you are templating?
summary
Clue builds a backend-driven UI system that ships JSON templates over server-sent events and renders them into native cards by decoding layered view models; the stack has three modules (communication, logic, UI), a view provider decoder that picks per-segment decoders, and segment types like spacer/header/image/text/button. Live demo shows template edits pushed to the app instantly, the system works in production, speeds up UI iteration across iOS and Android, and plans include fullscreen templates, animations, and richer media.
