Elm in Action

What Hacker News says

   As a free resource then https://elmprogramming.com/ does a good job of going beyond the official Elm guide.

   For far as books are concerned, Elm in Action by Richard Feldman and Programming Elm: Build Safe and Maintainable Front-End Applications by Jeremy Fairbank.

   Best of luck on your journey!

   This came at an awkward time. I just bought Richard Feldman's book "Elm in Action" a few days ago and was working through the first 2 chapters. This has made me reconsider my intention use Elm in my startup.

   Having features randomly fail on me and having to rewrite an entire library in elm vs calling out to js means less time creating features that matter to my customers! I was drawn to elm as a way of spending less time debugging my own code in production. Part of that overall strategy means pulling in tested, working code whether it's also elm or js.

   Some of what I see here could easily relegate elm to being a toy language; a damn shame considering how good it is as far as strongly typed functional languages to js go.
