It looks a little like a combination of React and Angular. Which probably really isn't a good thing.

What Hacker News says
2 sourcesDisclaimer: I wrote Mithril (one of the vdom frameworks mentioned in the presentation)
I like the idea of reactive programming, but it tends to add a lot of indirection. This is theoretically desirable, but not necessarily pragmatic in reality. A lot of frontend code in the wild is of the throw-away-in-a-few-years nature and it's hard to get mindshare among developers if they're required to learn stuff that feels academic when all they really care about is getting stuff shipped the next day. Being able (forced?) to tightly couple a controller and a view in Angular is one reason a lot of people like it.
I was giving a workshop on FP recently, and you'd be surprised at the number of people who still don't grok `filter`. FRP is still way over a lot of people's heads. Hopefully the industry will warm up more to the concept as React, Mithril,

Meteor, etc get more popular.
@staltz WRT Cycle.js itself:
I took a look at the TodoMVC example and was surprised to see intents reading data from DOM element data attributes (e.g. https://github.com/staltz/todomvc-cycle/blob/master/js/inten... ). How does one go about doing non-string parameterized intents? For example, I often need to reference an entity from an event handler and searching for it in a collection by ID seems wasteful. In Mithril, for example, handlers can receive parameters as inputs either via closures from the view or via partial application (i.e. Function::bind). This is especially useful for event handlers that deal with relationships between two or more different entities. Is there a similar mechanism in Cycle.js?
