Hi everyone,
as probably most people I find the GUI part of any application to be the hardest part.
It just occurred to me that I *could* write my wxHaskell desktop application as a web app too.
When the app starts, a haskell web server start listening on localhost port 8080 for example and I fire up a browser to page localhost:8080 without the user actually knowing too much about it.
Is that a totally stupid idea? Which haskell web servers would make good candidates? Are there any *continuation* based web server in haskell, something similar to Smalltalk's Seaside?
Happstack is not continuation based, but Chris Eidhof shows how to use Happstack with continuations here: http://gist.github.com/260052 And Chris Smith has built a package: http://bifunctor.homelinux.net/~roel/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/happsta... John
