Usage

If you haven't already, install node, install gren, and take a look at the book if you want to get up to speed with the language.

Then create a gren node application:

mkdir myapp
cd myapp
gren init --platform=node

Install the gren-tui package:

gren package install blaix/gren-tui

Then create a src/Main.gren file. For a starting point, see:

  • The example above.
  • The examples/ directory.

Then compile and run with:

gren make src/Main.gren
node app

Now what?

Check out the API docs and start writing your app!
