Abstract

Interactive user experiences on the web are becoming the norm. Client-side programs are becoming more complicated and have to deal with event handling, reading HTML document state and updating the interface. In this paper we propose a declarative language that supports these three facets of client-side browser development declaratively and provides a programming model where complex interfaces can be written using simple programming techniques such as records, functions and recursion.
