UI monad
------------------------------------------------------------------------------}
{- |
User interface elements are created and manipulated in the 'UI' monad.
This monad is essentially just a thin wrapper around the familiar 'IO' monad.
Use the 'liftIO' function to access 'IO' operations like reading
and writing from files.
There are several subtle reasons why Threepenny
uses a custom 'UI' monad instead of the standard 'IO' monad:
* More convenience when calling JavaScript.
The monad keeps track of a browser 'Window' context
in which JavaScript function calls are executed.
* Recursion for functional reactive programming.
