Great article thanks! I found it searching for state machine articles and am always interested in the variety of implementations. In case it is of interest, I have been working on a state machine DSL that generates Python and UML. Its called Frame and you can find the open source repo here: https://github.com/frame-lang/frame_transpiler.

Interested in your thoughts on state machines interfacing with AI . Now that I have an language to easily create automata that is one of the most important areas of research next.
