OutWatch - Functional and reactive Web-Frontend Library with Reactive Programming, VirtualDom and Scala Typelevel incubator Build Status Scala.js Gitter chat

import outwatch.dom._
import outwatch.dom.dsl._
import monix.execution.Scheduler.Implicits.global

OutWatch.renderInto("#app", h1("Hello World")).unsafeRunSync()

Syntax is almost exactly as in ScalaTags combined with Observables from Monix.

You can find more examples and features in the changelog: https://github.com/OutWatch/outwatch/blob/changelog/CHANGELOG.md

Getting started

g8 template

For a quick start, install java, sbt, nodejs and yarn and use the following g8 template:

sbt new outwatch/seed.g8

In your newly created project folder, run:

sbt dev

and point your browser to http://localhost:8080.

Changes to the code will trigger a recompile and automatically refresh the page in the browser.

Manual usage

Install java, sbt and nodejs, if you haven't already. Create a new SBT project and add the ScalaJS and Scala-js-bundler plugin to your plugins.sbt:

addSbtPlugin("org.scala-js" % "sbt-scalajs" % "0.6.23")
addSbtPlugin("ch.epfl.scala" % "sbt-scalajs-bundler" % "0.13.0")

Then add the outwatch dependency to your build.sbt.

libraryDependencies += "io.github.outwatch" %%% "outwatch" % "1.0.0-RC2"

If you are curious and want to try the state of the current master branch, add the following instead:

resolvers += "jitpack" at "https://jitpack.io"
libraryDependencies += "com.github.outwatch" % "outwatch" % "master-SNAPSHOT"

To configure hot reloading with webpack devserver, check out build.sbt and webpack.config.dev.js from the g8 template.

Documentation

There is a PR with a corresponding changelog which also serves as documentation with examples: https://github.com/OutWatch/outwatch/blob/changelog/CHANGELOG.md

There is also the slightly outdated but conceptually still correct documentation - contributions welcome.

Three main goals of OutWatch

  1. Updating DOM efficiently without sacrificing abstraction => Virtual DOM
  2. Handling subscriptions automatically
  3. Removing or restricting the need for Higher Order Observables

Bugs and Feedback

For bugs, questions and discussions please use the Github Issues.
