Hello, community! I am currently very new to UrWeb (just read FAQs, manual and watched demo), but have some experience in Haskell. I find Ur/Web approach to web development to be very interesting and want to try it but absence of libraries I used to employ is bothering me. I mean different parsers, image processing,
Certainly these pieces are probably best implemented outside of Ur/Web (though see the Ur/Web feed parsing library for a counterexample, which is quite low performance for now). You'll find a section in the manual explaining the foreign function interface, which allows very natural interfacing with C or JavaScript. The thing to watch out for is Ur/Web's transactional approach to all state; beyond that, it should be possible to interface easily with any language that exports a simple C interface.
OS integration like server-side processes or shared mem.
This part I don't understand. There are certainly "server-side processes" involved with any compiled Ur/Web application! If you describe precisely what functionality you want to implement, I may be able to explain how Ur/Web already supports it.
