3 didn’t help either
sorry, gotta go now for the announcement at https://twitter.com/LIGO… will be back later. thanks for your help so foar!
Good luck there :)
the first deadline's closed now but Mihai gave all the authors 4 more days for proofreading the draft
I've started tinkering with the code, with a mind to write a
miso-based frontend
but I have some doubts regarding the overall design and I figured this would be the place to discuss
so on one hand we have typical cabal/stack projects: multiple files in multiple directories, with dependencies forming a DAG
on the other, the notebook-style interaction: evaluate a cell, show results, evaluate another cell etc.
in miso, where do
startApp and the App type come from? they are seemingly not exported by the library
Basically a
stack build is issued each time
And also, Miso is quite weird, because those functions are only exported in the GHCJS version of it, not on the regular GHC one
So we would have to separate completely the backend from the frontend
Shoudlnt be that hard tho
now I'm trying to write a bare-bones project to figure out what goes where
though I'm completely ignorant re. frontend development
I'm having a good experience with miso but I don't get why certain IO doesn't work, for example listing a directory
so I wonder if it's a good idea to move that to a pure GHC backend
once I figure this out I'm ready to help with the haskell-do refactor
in the "model-view-controller" style, i.e. a finite state machine
the model is the state, buttons and whatever inputs are the controller and view is the visible part of this
I've been thinking to put a websocket in chart-unit for a while now, then luna came along, and now I want to try something like that out.
I imagine it's beyond svg, so would have to learn about front-end and canvas, and miso might wrap it all up nicely.
thanks Tim!
now if only I could get spacemacs and dante working with nix + ghcjs . . .
