Phelia – React for Slack Apps
- maxchehab 6y agoHey hn! I was tired of keeping track of Slack's webhook payloads, designing blocks in JSON, and general code fragmentation. So I tried removing the knowledge barrier of storage, state, webhooks, and message publishing as much as possible. Although Phelia won't make you a better developer, I hope it helps you build your Slack applications faster. All you gotta know is React.
- cvburgess 6y agoThis is so wonderful, as devloping rich interactive Slack apps can be a pain. Thanks for the work!
- flaque 6y agoThis is so great, thank you!
- prezjordan 6y agoClever, nice work. Always fun to see JSX being used for more than rendering DOM nodes.

It uses JSX for formatting text to output on the terminal. https://reason-native.com/docs/pastel/quickstart https://reason-native.com/docs/pastel/quickstart I'm using at the moment for a project and its quite interesting
- eyelidlessness 6y agoThis is a cool idea. I just took a glance while on my porch with my phone so limited in tools at hand, but a look at the reconciler suggests to me that this may benefit from some branded types. There are a bunch of type aliases to any, and TS will treat them as compatible by default. “Branding” types is a little sleight of hand that allows some degree of nominal typing that may benefit this usage if the types are meaningful but still truly can be any type
- jamestimmins 6y agoThis is really exciting! I just finished building a slack app and the JSON-centric UI leaves a lot to be desired.
- takklz 6y agoLove this! The slack api is bizarre
- slowmotarget 6y agoFantastic, thank you so much. I'd like to add that while WFH is getting a lot of traction, this is a wonderful time to market for your lib.
- bluetidepro 6y agoThis is incredible. Just what I needed for a project! Thank you so much!
