   Also, brilliant.org and exosphere.app, both with large and active Elm code bases. I worked for brilliant for a time and now work for exosphere. Also, my own project, https://scripta.io . About 45kloc of code split between the app

   I've been using lamdera regularly for a over a year. Having a full-stack, one-language solution makes development so much more pleasant and efficient. https://minilatex.lamdera.app

   My own two cents worth on Elm. I've worked with many languages, beginning with Fortran in my student days that I had to punch my own cards, then doing Basic, Pascal, C, C++, Python, Ruby, Javascript, Lisp, Scheme, some Haskell, not nec

   I wrote a library that parses a subset of LaTeX and renders it as HTML. See https://demo.minilatex.app/ or more at https://minilatex.io I was astonished by what is possible to do with Elm. This is a continuing

   Yes, something like that. Almost everyone who writes Elm code uses elm-format which is very "spacey". So foo = 1 is formatted with foo = on one line and 1 on the next, with some leading space.

   One more point. Writing something like the MiniLatex parser would be somewhere between impossible altogether and nightmarish without an expressive type system. Below is the definition of the type of the abstract syntax tree (AST) for Mini

   Just wanted to say what a joy it has been to work with the 0.19 compiler. For the project at https://knode.io , it was a game-changer: the elm/parser library is so fast that it makes live rendering of LaTeX to HTML a reality

   At present, Elm compiles to javascript. But when the time is right, it will have other compilation targets as well, e.g Webaassmebly

    Also: much faster compilation times and a parser combinator library (elm/parse) that for me is a game-changer. It makes live-rendering of LaTeX to HTML a reality. See https://medium.com/@jxxcarlson/elm-0-19-its-p

    I've been working on a project, now at http://www.knode.io for quite some time. It went from Rails to an Elixir back end with an Angular 1 frontend, then a brief experiment with an Angular 2 frontend, and finally to an Elm

    Yes, move faster, then pay the price later when stuff is broken and hard to fix.

    My (limited)experience is that when a rails app gets too big, it becomes hard to manage. That was my case, anyway. The architecture of hanami promotes longterm developer sanity. The fact that views are objects and the existence of intera
