A PureScript + Halogen codebase containing real world examples (CRUD, auth, design patterns, routing, pagination, etc) that adheres to the RealWorld spec and API.
Use the impl branch to track current progress on the guide and implementation
- Read the guide to learn about the design of this app and how to build your own Halogen applications.
- Check out the RealWorld project for more information on how to use this with various backends and compare it to other frameworks.
Note: This project is a work-in-progress! Please feel free to open issues, critique the guide, offer advice, or even implement part of the application.
Getting started
To get the frontend running locally:
# Install dependencies via NPM and Bower
yarn
# Build the project (alternately, use `npm run build`)
yarn build
# Run a local API server (alternately, use `npm run start`)
yarn start
