Is Integration with other JavaScript UI frameworks possible?

Posted 10 years ago

I have only just now begun learning about the Wolfram Cloud product. I am curious if it is possible to leverage existing JavaScript frameworks such as Kendo UI, GreenSock, etc? Or is the Wolfram Cloud environment constrained solely to Wolfram Language UI controls? If it is possible to incorporate Kendo UI, is there an equivalent component to the WebSharper Extensions for Kendo UI Complete product?

That's too bad. And frankly it's rather astonishing to me that the world's most powerful programming language system doesn't yet leverage and embrace the plethora of existing web technologies (since the web is the most universal publishing platform). And it's all the more surprising considering the large number of programming languages that do provide some sort of JavaScript trans-compilation.

It seems then that one is limited to using text-templating techniques to emit JavaScript source code if one wishes to leverage these other frameworks.

The Wolfram Cloud isn't a Javascript framework or library. It's a full application and you can make interactive notebooks that you can share with other people.

The short answer is no - nothing like what you're describing has been built so you can mix Wolfram Language code in Javascript like you suggested. There are ways of using Wolfram Language code on a webpage such as APIFunction.
