Interactive programs without callbacks or side-effects. Functional Reactive Programming (FRP) uses composable events and time-varying values to describe interactive systems as pure functions. Just like other pure functional code, functional reactive code is easier to get right on the first try, maintain, and reuse. (by reflex-frp)
In this series of posts, we will describe how a Haskell web application can be developed using reflex-platform. reflex-platform offers reflex and reflex-dom packages. reflex package is the Haskell implementation of Functional reactive programming (FRP). reflex-dom library contains a large number of functions, classes, and types used when dealing with DOM. The packages are separated as it is possible to use the FRP approach not only for web-development. We will develop theTodo List application that allows carrying out various manipulations on the task list.
The result we obtained can be viewed in in our repository.
Hi there! My name is Nikita. At Typeable, we develop frontend for some of our projects using the FRP approach, specifically, its Haskell implementation – reflex web-framework. The resources that offer guidelines for this framework are quite limited, so we decided to fill this gap more or less.
