{-# LANGUAGE NoImplicitPrelude, OverloadedStrings, FlexibleInstances #-}

-- | If you are interested in the IHaskell library for the purpose of augmenting the IHaskell
-- notebook or writing your own display mechanisms and widgets, this module contains all functions
-- you need.
--
-- In order to create a display mechanism for a particular data type, write a module named (for
-- example) @IHaskell.Display.YourThing@ in a package named @ihaskell-yourThing@. (Note the
-- capitalization - it's important!) Then, in that module, add an instance of @IHaskellDisplay@ for
-- your data type. Similarly, to create a widget, add an instance of @IHaskellWidget@.
--
-- An example of creating a display is provided in the
-- <http://gibiansky.github.io/IHaskell/demo.html demo notebook>.
