Re: workshop request: GHCJS

[Dustin Getz <dustin.getz@gmail.com>]

I think it will drive research into functional lensing on the dom, which hopefully will eventually drive browser vendors to natively implement a fast immutable DOM api. Facebook React has a really really nice stepping stone to this - your render methods return pseudodom instead of side effecting the real dom, and then a "reconciliation" step merges the pseudodom with the real dom. This strategy would be absolutely brilliant in GHCJS i think because you can manipulate the dom in a state monad or lenses or whatever, which is not going to be nearly as workable in ClojureScript let alone vanilla JS.

seems interesting, sort of like a haskell version of clojurescript

Would love to dig into haskell's new _javascript_ compiler at a meetup if someone feels qualified to talk about it or run a tutorial.
