Many technologies and frameworks aim to simplify the interaction between frontend and backend, as well as offering one language targeting both.
Lustre, a web framework for Gleam, does not just offer this as one of it’s features, but is instead built around this as a principle.
With Lustre’s server side components, the gap between the ECMAScript world in the browser and the backend in BEAM is bridged in the most elegant way.
In this session we will go through the simple process of setting up server components and see them in action.
Talk objectives:
-
An introduction to the simplicity and the multi target capabilities of the Gleam framework.
-
An introduction to the Lustre web framework, and it’s portability to be used both server side in BEAM, and client side in JavaScript.
-
A demonstration of Lustre’s server components, the building block that enables us to create full-stack applications without feeling like we ever cross from one stack to another.
