I'm not an Elm veteran like a lot of the folks here, but I think an aspect of Elm is that a lot of the traditional ways that people expand ecosystems are discouraged by Elm's approach. For instance, components are hard to do in Elm and are discouraged in the documentation[1].
So my own personal Elm projects have involved a lot of reading other code and often copying and modifying open source code, but it's hard to wholesale import components in the way that JavaScript and other languages do it. My experience with the language is that it is very easy to do what I want in it, but it seems more difficult to share that as an open source contribution in Elm than in similar languages.
