It would be great if someone could do this. I wanted to try to build the new code this afternoon, but couldn't really get started.

The basic build instructions are as follows (I just tested this on a fresh Windows machine, will write up properly later):

  1. Install purescript compiler and spago build tool
  • There is a shell.nix provided for Nix
  • On Windows, the recommended way of doing this is via npm install -g purescript spago
  1. In the relevant directory, e.g. core or webclient, run spago build

The compiled code can be played around with in the repl (spago repl); currently, there isn't much of a user interface.
