An OCaml library*
loeg•2mo ago
Seems redundant; the title already includes "Jane Street."
forgotpwd16•2mo ago
Quite amusing how they've become known as that-firm-using-OCaml.
jauntywundrkind•2mo ago
Nearby, ghostty-web has a wasm build. Probably not inconceivable to spin a more general wasm build too. https://github.com/coder/ghostty-web https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46060087

No screenshots or videos?
malux85•2mo ago
GUI library with no screenshots, classic
FailMore•2mo ago
I was looking for the same thing too
some_guy_nobel•2mo ago
README could use more work. Zero images, demos, etc. - why put all the effort into a tool just to market it so poorly...
thaumasiotes•2mo ago
Probably because they wrote the tool for internal use and don't care whether you start using it.
sroerick•2mo ago
I too, would like tosee screenshots.

I have not heard of bonsai_web before.

Could you feasibly use this to build both web apps and TUI apps simultaneously? If this is the case, I find this extremely interesting. The examples look well fleshed out and interesting.

OCAML seems like a perfect language to accomplish this. Ocsigen is pretty complex, but also seems wildly ahead of its time. PPX is a wonderful metaprogramming paradigm and I would love to know how this is being used in production

Hey, I've been on an odyssey to port this (for a very liberal definition of "port") to .NET for many months!

The underlying library [Incremental][0] [is ported][1] though currently unused; the "ported" framework itself doesn't yet include any Bonsai magic, but the terminal-side stuff is [Zoomies][2], in which [this is broadly what it looks like][3] to write a VDOM (scroll down to line 100 to see how to process user interaction, and line 150 to see how that VDOM renders). All very incomplete and with a big long list of features to add, and the current design is not flexible enough yet to accommodate the "table" primitive, but we're slowly getting there.
