UI libraries¶
There are effectively two actively maintained and working solutions.
React-Basic¶
Quite transparent React interop. Start by looking here: https://github.com/f-f/purescript-react-basic-todomvc
See the starter here: https://github.com/lumihq/react-basic-starter
See my fork with all of my opinionated things here: https://github.com/justinwoo/spacchetti-react-basic-starter
And the TodoMVC implementation here: https://github.com/f-f/purescript-react-basic-todomvc
Halogen¶
Pure PureScript. Fast if you don’t write naive code with thousands of unkeyed children. Note that the docs are slow to update, but each major version is very usable. This library can end up being a deep rabbit hole of FP ideas and how FP also models OOP. Consider React-Basic if you want to get started quickly and improve your codebase incrementally.
