Hey everyone! I just released v1.0.0 of gomponents last week. It's an HTML component builder in pure Go, with a DSL-like HTML syntax. It's been 4 years in the making, and makes it really easy to build HTML in your web apps.

There are at least two generations of libraries doing that in Haskell. There was blaze-html and then lucid afterwards to fix some monad laws.

There was also was WASH[1] way before blaze.

Given the minimal syntactic overhead and the do-syntax overload/Monad type class, Haskell is a great language to do these embedded DSLs in.
