Gimel

ALPHA RELEASE IS OUT!

Now I'm going to build some infrastructure, the first step is to make a website with documentation, you can follow my progress here https://github.com/DoctorRyner/gimel.io

Also, it can be a good example of Gimel's usage

What is this?

This is an Elm-like UI library with power of React. Elm is great but it doesn't have that much widgets and ready-to-use solutions as React. Also PureScript is just much more powerful than Elm. I wanted to make this library as easy-to-use as Elm but with much greater potential

How to run the examples?

If you don't have npm, you'll need to install it. For example, you can download it from here https://nodejs.org/en/download/

Just enter the examples folder and type make init def. Next time you can just type make because everything is already initialized

Tools

We use:

• PureScript as a programming language because it's much more powerful and less error-prone than JavaScript, you can install it using npm i -g purescript
• spago as a PureScript build tool, it's much more flexible and reliable than pulp, you can install it using npm i -g spago
• parcel as a web bundler, we use it because it doesn't require ANY configuration in opposite to webpack
