Purely Functional Web Frontends with Reflex/Haskell

We're going to look at Reflex, a way to make Web UIs using Haskell by transpiling to JavaScript.

Along the way, we'll learn about functional reactive programming, fixpoints, monadic fixpoints, and tagless final encoding.

If this seems scary, don't worry, these topics will be approached from scratch. If you know what a type signature is, this talk should be approachable.

Our speaker, Owen, has written web frontends professionally using Reflex, while working for the company that developed Reflex.
