I am so absurdly excited about cycle. I tend to get excited about things, true, but this feels like a coherent and elegant approach to making interfaces.
I felt like this when I first understood React, but React is incomplete, it is just the view layer. Flux never felt right to me, and I've been exploring alternatives ever since I realized I didn't want to pass callbacks all the way down my app tree. I've messed with Om, Baobab, Reflux, etc., but I never felt like I understood the whole picture, like my toolset was complete. I had always assumed I would use React plus something, but after reading through a bunch of Cycle example apps, I'm enthralled.
Another thing, FRP is a paradigm that I'd looked at before, but never really grocked. Reading cycle examples let me see how many problems I have this approach could solve for me, even a bunch beyond the interface domain that cycle focuses on.
Anyway, I'm pumped about it and encourage people to take a look :)
I had my moment of truth by running and reading through the examples in this repository: https://github.com/ivan-kleshnin/cyclejs-examples https://github.com/ivan-kleshnin/cyclejs-examples
