This looks really cool! Do you currently have any abstractions for interacting with DOM elements?

I'm only a bystander, but I believe PureScript doesn't include data-to-DOM binding. If you want to do it manually, I would look at the Eff monad[1].

It sounds like there are adapters to few popular frameworks, like React [2] and Angular [3].

I'm guessing a JS-controlled framework, like React or Mithril, would be a better fit if you choose to use PureScript as a core piece of your app, as they are function-based, like PureScript.

Interesting. For my current project, I don't want to include large frameworks so it looks like this library [1] should do the trick.

There are a few options, but the most fully-formed is probably purescript-react. I'm also interested to see where the virtual-dom bindings go. The last chapter of the book covers how you might go about writing a library for working with DOM elements in PureScript.
