Discussion on: Is anyone interested in an Elm tutorial?

Some topics that I don't think have been covered well in the official documentation:

  • Web components...yay or nay?
  • The SPA example would definitely be a very good way to thoroughly tie together all the parts of Elm
  • Taking advantage of the parser library to do something cool...perhaps creating a DSL for building forms or something else that would simplify really tedious tasks?
  • Elm and JS interopt, or strategies for gradually introducing your team to Elm.
  • Some high-quality automated testing, possibly even from a TDD perspective.

Since I have you here.

What tutorial would YOU be most interested in reading (from your list or otherwise)? Are you currently trying to build something and struggling?

Definitely parsing, I love learning about compilers!

Also, since you seem to be the biggest evangelist for Elm right now, could you recommend any specific Elm projects that need help?

I have an interest in Elm that I'm exploring deeply. I share what I learn but I'm no evangelist for Elm.

could you recommend any specific Elm projects that need help?

None that I'm aware of at the moment.
