Will my Elm code written today still be maintainable with an up-to-date elm environment in 3 years? It certainly isn't the case with code written 3 years ago.

- fortran77 7y agoI agree this is a problem, but what "JavaScript" compiler/language technology isn't changing rapidly? 3 years ago we were using JQuery.
- jweir 7y agoDoubtful, but possible. What is highly likely is there will be 1 or 2 upgrades between now and in 3 years. If history is any indicator these upgrades will be relatively painless. The next upgrade, 0.19.1, will be completely backwards compatible.
