I have recently been experimenting with the Haskell QML binding HsQML. I am a big fan of QML and it’s portability. It’s a very flexible language for user interface development and it makes for a powerful combination with Haskell.

Recently, I wrote about integrating QML code and Haskell using Fay.

HsQML, however, is a more direct way of integrating QML and Haskell. The HsQML approach has the value of the Haskell runtime and garbage collector, among other things (though, Fay may compile the garbage collector, not sure).

This post describes working with HsQML < 0.3.

If you are reading this, you are probably more or less aware of the JavaScript Problem. Like many, I frequently work with JavaScript. There is no avoiding JavaScript on the web and many corners of the software development industry.

My most recent JavaScript endeavor has been in the world of Qt5 and QML. QML is a solid toolkit for writing fluid and cross-platform user interfaces.

Recently, while experimenting with QML, I had a revelation. What if it was possible to generate QML code from Haskell using Fay. Eureka!
