GHCJS is a Haskell to JavaScript compiler built on the GHC API, compiling Haskell programs and packages to run in browsers and Node.js. It includes a JavaScript code generator and a customized variant of the GHC library, with boot libraries compiled via an emscripten toolchain.
Use cases
- compile haskell code to javascript
- run haskell programs in the browser
- build frontend web apps in haskell
- target nodejs from haskell
- reuse existing haskell libraries for web development
When to choose
- you want to write web or node.js applications in Haskell
- you need to reuse existing Haskell packages in a JavaScript environment
- you want GHC-compatible type checking and semantics for code compiled to JS
When to avoid
- you need a simple, actively maintained Haskell-to-JS pipeline without GHC version constraints
- you want to call C foreign libraries directly from compiled code
- your project requires the latest GHC features or fast release cadence
