An Idris -> Objective-C demo via JavascriptCore

Yeah I know its JavascriptCore, but until one of us write mkDynamicForeign or relaxes mkForeigns literal string argument restriction during the type provider phase, we're stuck with this.

Install

1. Clone the repo

2. Run script/bootstrap

3. Compile Idris from joshvera/main-js or

4. Since the Javascript Idris backend assumes a document or window object exists in the JS execution context and JavaScriptCore has neither, we need to modify the generated main function:

   var main = function(){
   if (document.readyState == "complete" || document.readyState == "loaded") {
   __IDRRT__tailcall(function(){
   return __IDR__mrunMain0()
   });
   } else {
   window.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded",function(){
   __IDRRT__tailcall(function(){
   return __IDR__mrunMain0()
   })
   },false);
   }
   }
   
   // To:
   
   var main = function(){
   __IDRRT__tailcall(function(){
   return __IDR__mrunMain0()
   });
   }

5. Run it.
