Elm
- Experience
- Loving that it's a small, opinionated DSL that reminds me a lot of Haskell
- The developer tools are excellent and very helpful, which makes this pleasant
- Documentation is spread across versions, which can be a little tricky when reading tutorials
- UI development might actually be pleasant for me, this time
- Loving that it's a small, opinionated DSL that reminds me a lot of Haskell
- Shorter overviews
- CSS in Elm?
- Elm setup
- Use a
Browser.applicationfrom the beginning to really build a web-app - Elm-live works really well: enough that I prefer it to elm-reactor to avoid manual refreshes
- Within emacs
- lsp-mode with elm-language-server
- used the package exec-path-from-shell to make sure the language server was launched with the correct path
- elm-mode works well, particularly for indentation
- lsp-mode with elm-language-server
- Explicitly added
elm-stuffto.gitignore
- Use a
- Elm internals?
- List implementation: look at this by generating code through the compiler
- The code is surprisingly readable
- Looks like a direct translation to javascript, eg. F2 takes a function and makes it resemble haskell
- I'm a little bit surprised at good performance in this case because Elm is spending a lot of VM memory, functions, etc.
- Implementation of cons:
function _List_Cons(hd, tl) { return { $: '::', a: hd, b: tl }; }
- The code is surprisingly readable
- List implementation: look at this by generating code through the compiler
