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:
PureScriptas a programming language because it's much more powerful and less error-prone thanJavaScript, you can install it usingnpm i -g purescriptspagoas a PureScript build tool, it's much more flexible and reliable than pulp, you can install it usingnpm i -g spagoparcelas a web bundler, we use it because it doesn't require ANY configuration in opposite towebpack
