Probably not the answer you'd like, but there doesn't exist one. Please do us all a favor and create one yourself ;) (probably with the help of this .) If that's too much effort, you can use some JS lib

Re: [elm-discuss] What do you think Elm's biggest shortcomings are when it comes to natively supported API's?

(Elm discuss is fine for this. There are almost no open discussions on elm dev, as these are usually a waste of everyone's time.) For me, these things would be nice to have: * WebAudio API * File upload * Working with binary files, e.g. parsing * Persistent cache, offering access to

[elm-discuss] Re: Getting functions out of the model

ur library currently deals with interruptions. I once created an animation library for react <https://github.com/Zinggi/RAnimation>, it kinda works like I described above and it does have interruptable animations. But of course react doesn't map nicely to elm. On Thursday, 13 October 201

[elm-discuss] Re: Getting functions out of the model

I also thought about this problem for a bit. I came up with a slightly different solution. I was not only not happy with storing functions in my model, but also with storing static values in the model (e.g. stuff that wont change often). I think it would be nice to separate the *descriptions* of

I also think that comparing functions should just compare them by reference, this should cover the most common cases. Another possible solution: What about a compile time error? Is this possible? On Wednesday, 12 October 2016 18:48:12 UTC+2, Mark Hamburg wrote: > > As discussed elsewhere, the

This also has the added benefit that you can then use the same animation with different easing functions without having to duplicate the whole Animation record. On Wednesday, 5 October 2016 10:01:25 UTC+2, Zinggi wrote: > > I think you could create an animation library that doesn't sto

Re: [elm-discuss] Re: keeping functions out of the model

I think you could create an animation library that doesn't store any functions in its model and still be able to let a user provide whatever easing function they want. E.g. remove the ease key from your AnimRecord and let all functions that currently take an Animation have an additional

You could wait some time on the 0.18 release which will most likely bring back the time traveling debugger, with object introspection. This is much more comfortable than Debug.log. For now, you could use this library which
