Update code to run with purs 0.11.7

[adius]

Hi,
I updated the code to run with the latest version of PureScript.
Luckily it wasn't that bad to upgrade 😁.
The updated dependencies are directly defined in the bower.json file.
Do you rather want to update purescript-batteries instead and
import the updated version?

Thanks for doing this! Obviously I haven't touched this project in a while. In fact, that was already the case a few months ago: #113

Using dependencies directly instead of going through Batteries is fine. When I created this, the idea was that Batteries would be "normal" and Neon would be "weird". In other words, Batteries would be an easy way to use all the default stuff and Neon would be an experimental interface on top of Batteries.

In practice, that's probably not worth it. Batteries inevitably pulls in more than Neon needs. They might also move at different paces. For example, if I still maintained Batteries it would be good for it to always be at the latest version of everything. That's not really the case with Neon.

All that being said, my situation hasn't really changed. I am not in a position to pour effort into the PureScript community or maintain these libraries. If you want to pick up the torch, I would be more than happy to add you as a collaborator.

That's what I thought...

Sounds cool! I wanted to write a little CLI tool with neon, so I'm around for at least a little 😁

First step would be to put it up on Pursuit. Shall I publish it with my account, or do you want to use yours?

I've added you as a collaborator. If Pursuit lets you upload it under your name, go ahead. Neon used to be on Pursuit but I think the docs have been nuked at least once since then.
