[elm-discuss] interesting article

2016-05-23 Thread Stefan Houtzager
I am interested in learning elm. I just read an article from Jean-Jacques Dubray. He thinks an alignment with "SAM" would make elm stronger: https://www.infoq.com/articles/no-more-mvc-frameworks#anch133142. Discussions: https://gitter.im/jdubray/sam. What do you think? Might it be interesting

Makes sense, but remember that most users who are new to Elm will not be checking the upgrade doc from a version they never used. On Monday, May 23, 2016 at 1:10:08 PM UTC-4, Noah Hall wrote: > > (not saying it can't be improved - but this is where the info for > core/evan's packages live) > >

The maintainer for the plugin is sadly unresponsive. There's been a couple of offers to take it over, and it's been forked to elm-community, but apparently the process to get it updated upstream with sublime package control is complex. I'm not sure. for now, you can add a `--where` as a comment af

Perhaps there could be an option for a "landing page" or multi-version README, so the documentation for the old versions can point to the new versions? Like, a PackageInfo.md in master on GitHub? Or maybe, when a library is deprecated, it should be good practice to release a "dummy" version with a

I'm not sure if the lazyDict approach applies, but I'm hitting a much simpler (IMO) issue that I've reported at https://github.com/elm-lang/html/issues/21. I'm honestly surprised that no one has run into it yet, specially since the documentation for `key` in 0.16 specifically provides this exac

Re: [elm-discuss] Will ELM become a general purpose language?

2016-05-23 Thread Zachary Kessin
I don't know if Elm should become a general server side language. I mean you have many years of development in the runtimes of Erlang (Beam), OCaml and Haskell as well as others. At this point I would say that if you want a strong type system on the server side take a look at Haskell, OCaml or F#

Actually no, and it looks like Noah has put more effort into the helpers, and faced the same complexity in actually extracting messages incoming On 23 May 2016 12:14 a.m., "Magnus Rundberget" wrote: > Did you notice this before you set out on your quest ? > http://package.elm-lang.org/packages/No
