Hello all!
I'm coming from the background of building web apps that are wrapped
in a headless browser and would like to take the app development
experience and bring it to the racket ecosystem. As an html / css /
javascript engineer I'm finding the learning curve pretty daunting
with racket's documentation but lack of copious examples... So I'd
like to create some practice apps that introduce ideas / concepts that
are familiar from the web app realm within the environment of racket...
That said, what I'd like to do is build the canonical "Todo App" in
racket/gui or an equivalent. Basically I'd like the ability to create
the equivalent of div / layout elements, sub elements that you are
familiar to the browser (text input, checkboxes), and the ability to
mix in styles. Basically HTML + CSS.
Ideally I'd like to create a Racket version of the following
website: http://photonkit.com.
Any resources to get started would be great.
Best,
Travis
There is a basic GUI layout editor called "MrED". It's not included
with Racket, but it is available as an installable package:
https://pkgs.racket-lang.org/package/mred-designer
http://planet.racket-lang.org/display.ss?package=mred-designer.plt&owner=orseau
The 1st link is newer, but AFAICT doesn't include the documentation.
2nd link is to the older package server, but includes documentation.
