Re: Live UI

[Ryan Williams]

Yea, definitely check out Spree ! It
functions as "live" UI, history server, and archival storage of event log
data.

There are pros and cons to building something like it in Spark trunk (and
running it in the Spark driver, presumably) that I've spent a lot of time
thinking about and am happy to talk through (here, offline, or in the Spree
gitter room ) if you want to go that
route.

I don't think there has been much work done with ScalaJS and Spark (outside
of the April fools press release), but there is a live Web UI project out
of hammerlab with Ryan Williams https://github.com/hammerlab/spree which
you may want to take a look at.
