Re: [Haskell-cafe] Simple GUI Form

Sure, and thanks for sharing. We need more declarative GUI building! On Sat, Dec 1, 2012 at 9:00 AM, wrote:

It's fine if you don't use gtk. I just wanted to show off my code :)

I know it's not wx, but if you were willing to use GTK, you could simply install:

http://hackage.haskell.org/package/gtk-jsinput

and generate the form automatically as described in:

https://github.com/timthelion/gtk-jsinput/blob/master/Graphics/UI/Gtk/Custom...

Cool!

Would rather see it generated from the haskell data structure than from json, but you could of cause generate json from the data type.

My understand is that GTK applications don't look and feel native on windows/mac, that's why I went for wx, but I could easily be wrong.
