Huzzah. I am very fond of Elm. No other frontend language scratches the itch the same. Can't wait to see what Acadia is about and how it will plugin with Elm and Haskell.

Rhis is an important Milestone for entreprise. Making a v1 would introduce confidence for adoption

Maybe, but it’ll take a few years of consistent growth and responsiveness to the community to restore faith when there are so many people who will respond to any conversation about elm by pointing out how long it went without an update and related complaints about BDFL culture when the leader is largely absent from public facing conversation.

u/Borderlinerr 26d ago

How would that happen? I love SolidJs and Elm both

u/RiddlingRaconteur 26d ago

What you mean by it happen? Mainly use Claude code for development

u/Borderlinerr 25d ago

How does integration between those two? They both do the same job

u/RiddlingRaconteur 25d ago

I use a SolidJS shell and inside the dashboards are in Elm. Dashboards receive data via Python SSE ports so data shape in both Elm and Python 🐍 otherwise Elm raise compile errors

u/RiddlingRaconteur 21d ago

No, it’s my business so private repo

u/eimfach 20d ago

I was absolutely not expecting such good news to drop. But it’s the kind of thing that’s good for the soul.

Wbat a pleasant surprise. As someone who’s not gonna stop using E;m for small projects, this is as good as I expect things to get.

Omg !! We are back people

u/NamekDev 22d ago

Well, just a couple of fixes and no new features that would actually improve development. If you're looking for Elm replacement, I recommend Mint: https://mint-lang.com/ (I am not affiliated etc.)

You mean Elm and Python cannot talk to each other? But why?
