Indeed ^^. In case you're still interested, I posted there what I did (at
the end) :

I also wonder how memory efficient a pure Elm solution could be, as currently
there's no support for binary or packed data representation. That alone might
argue for keeping the image data itself on the JavaScript side where you (or
the libraries you use) can pull all sorts of tricks with typed
Thanks Ian for the link. I will keep this work in mind though I don't think
I could use it for my current project. It seems focused on rgbd matrix data
type which is great for transparent dynamic graphics. Svg representation
does really suits my needs for now since I'm visualizing non changing data
For your second question, I know there's work being done currently on
supporting the Canvas API in Elm (https://github.com/elm-community/canvas),
which may be more appropriate for visualizing bitmap data than SVG, but it's
still very experimental.

I'm currently looking for a library to do some basic image processing and
matrix manipulation stuff.
I have a research background (mostly spending time in Matlab), and
currently preparing a user study. Elm has been great for my needs so far,
but I'm encountering now a few obstacles.
