A haskell implementation of todoMVC

Haskell TodoMVC Example

Haskell is a strongly-typed, lazily-evaluated, functional programming language.

• live demo

• with automation

This example demonstrates an idiomatic haskell approach to the TodoMVC problem domain involving:

• compilation of haskell to javascript using ghcjs.
• The specification of a Model representing the problem domain, consisting of
• specification of Abstract Data Types (ADTs) for inputs, state and outputs.
• an algebra between state and actions.
• Use of the mvc library for specification, asynchronicity and separation of model, view and controllers.
• The creation of Views that consume model outputs, by using vanilla javascript effects.
• The creation of Controllers that produce model inputs, by listening for Dom events using vanilla javascript.

The recipe below handles the bits and bobs you need to do every re-compile. This includes a compression step via closure.
