mogwai – view library for creating GUI applications

mogwai is a library for building asynchronous user interfaces.

This is free and open source software.

Key Features

  • Provides a declarative approach to creating and managing view nodes.
  • Encapsulate component state and compose components easily.
  • Explicate view mutation.
  • Small and fast.
  • Uses streams, sinks, a declarative view builder and async logic to define components and how they change over time. – view events like click, mouseover, etc are sent through streams instead of invoking a callback. Streams can be mapped, filtered and folded.
  • Widgets use asynchronous task loops that receive events from the view and send updates to the view in response.
  • View mutation is explicit and happens as a result of views receiving messages, so there is no performance overhead from vdom diffing.
