JavaScript vs. PureScript vs. SunEditor vs. wysihtml Comparison Chart

PureScript is a strongly typed, purely functional programming language that compiles JavaScript. It enables developers to build robust web applications, web servers, and mobile apps using functional programming techniques. PureScript offers features such as algebraic data types, pattern matching, row polymorphism, extensible records, higher-kinded types, type classes with functional dependencies, and higher-rank polymorphism. The language emphasizes strong static typing and pure functions, ensuring code reliability and maintainability. Developers can compile PureScript code into readable JavaScript, facilitating seamless integration with existing JavaScript codebases. The ecosystem includes an extensive collection of libraries, excellent tooling, and editor support with instant rebuilds. An active community provides numerous learning resources, including the PureScript book, which offers practical projects for beginners.

wysihtml is an extended and less strict approach on xing/wysihtml5 open source rich text editor. The code is library agnostic and has all dependencies bundled, no jQuery, Prototype or similar is required. The currently bundled dependencies are rangy.js (including textrange and selectionsaverestore modules) and base.js. This project is supported by Voog. It’s an open source, community developed wysiwyg html rich text editor. Any web developer can grab it and use it in her projects. Fast and lightweight, auto-linking of urls as-you-type, valid, semantic HTML5 (even when pasting from Word), no iframes required, no jQuery required, and it's modular, so you can add your own tools. Object namespace is now wysihtyml (was previously wysihtml5). This change includes all classnames and event names. The default toolbar is separated to independent module (wysihtml.toolbar.js) and must be added separately if used.
