Pardon my blunt question, but who is the heck is this for? Is this a sideways method of pushing React.js? Or is this for assembly programmers as well, and I jus

  I've thought this would be a good way to write video games, but most engines don't support the sort of functional programming that would make this pleasant to use, so I wind up creating events which solve similar kinds of problems.

It keeps things declarative, which also helps the web of interdependedness problem of many, overlapping systems.
