In coordination with Vancouver's Elm Meetup, next meeting is going to be all about the Front-End.
Tavis Rudd will introduce GHCJS (https://github.com/ghcjs/ghcjs), a complete Haskell to JavaScript compiler, based on GHC. GHCJS has been quietly in development since 2010. It has recently become a viable option for front-end development, with the addition of seamless Cabal and Stack integration, a browser or node based REPL and a growing ecosystem of libraries such as react-flux (https://bitbucket.org/wuzzeb/react-flux), reflex-frp (https://github.com/reflex-frp/reflex) and shine (https://github.com/fgaz/shine). We'll explore its installation and basic usage, rich feature-set, performance and a few examples then compare it with other Haskell like front-end languages such as Elm and Purescript.
