“custom operators” is where you lost me. Elm for me is like a refuge from JavaScript where anything goes (good and bad). It’s not a hammer for very nail, but it’s simple and predictable for the most part. There are other frameworks like bucklescript / reason, purescript, closurescript, etc. with all the bells and whistles. Ultimately, I think Elm is in a good place. That being said you have to pretty quickly jump into the deep end once you reach a fairly moderate sized code base.
