elm-app v0.0.19

elm-app

Create Elm 0.19 + Webpack 4 apps with no build configuration.

Similar to create-react-app and create-elm-app.

Stability Notice: This is basically my own weekend-ware tool that is currently an inferior version of create-elm-app. This will be a test bed of some other ideas I've wanted from a CLI Elm toolkit, is highly unstable, and is unfit for serious use.

Features

• Handles Webpack config so you don't have to.
• Supports Elm 0.19's new --optimize.
• Compiles modern JavaScript to ES5.
• Hot-reloads as you edit files.
• Sass support.

Install

Install it as a global executable.

npm install -g elm-app

Usage

Generate a fresh Elm project:

elm-app init foo

Run it in development mode:

elm-app start

Compile it for production:

elm-app build

(TODO) Deploy:

elm-app deploy github
elm-app deploy netlify
elm-app deploy s3

(TODO) Abandon:

elm-app eject

Scaffolding

This is the structure that elm-app init <path> generates.

Production

Compile your app into a build/ folder, optimized and ready to be deployed:

elm-app build

Host it locally to see how it turned out:

cd build
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 5000
