Websharper. Getting Started Sample. Errors
websharperf#

I am new to F#. I am typing (copy-pasting actually) the very first sample from [link:www.websharper.com]

However I cannot make it run. I am getting an error when I copy paste this:

1  let HomePage =
2      Template "HomePage" <| fun ctx ->
3          [ Div [Text "HOME"] Links ctx Div [new Controls.HelloControl()] ]

There is something wrong with Template. Hovering over displays this message:

This expression was expected to have type 'a -> 'b but here has type Template<'c>

I have VS 2010 and WS latest version. Is it something that changed from the date the sample was created or is it some other issue?

.

The sample has been fixed. Thanks for reporting the error!

As shown in the other answer, indentation is important: the body here is a list of three elements. If you want to write the elements of a list on the same line, you need to add semicolons between them.
It seems that the sample contains an error, we will fix this as soon as possible.

Seems like this fixes the error.

    let HomePage =        
        Skin.WithTemplate "HomePage" <| fun ctx ->
            [
                Div [Text "HOME"]
                Links ctx
                Div  [new Controls.HelloControl ()]
            ]
