Purely Functional Web Apps using React and PureScript

on YouTube ↗01h 49m

" summary

Workshop claims you can build real single‑page apps in PureScript with React and shows it: PureScript + React via Thermite for pure render/event model, AJAX via appjax/purescript‑app to call a JSON API on localhost:9000, and a tiny server repo that browser-reply compiles. Exercises implement a toggle and a POST “like” that persists (refresh shows incremented count) and an SVG top five bar chart with clickable bars. Code compiles and demos run end to end.
