Quick Start

Overview

Halogen.VDom is a bare-bones virtual-dom library for PureScript with inspiration drawn from:

• https://github.com/Matt-Esch/virtual-dom
• https://github.com/paldepind/snabbdom
• https://github.com/elm-lang/virtual-dom

Its goals include:

1. Use as little FFI as possible.
2. Be as fast as possible given (1).
3. Be extensible.

Notably, Halogen.VDom is largely useless out of the box. You'll need to bring your own attributes, properties, and event listeners (though there is a working implementation included). It is intended to be extended (and likely newtyped) by other frameworks to suit their needs.
