What is Elm?

Elm is a programming language that you can use to build web apps. Elm is user-friendly, which makes it a great place to learn to build web apps. Elm is a functional language that compiles to JavaScript. It is a separate language from JavaScript, which means you must learn the syntax and language rules of Elm.

What are the advantages of Elm?

• Elm allows you to write well-architectured code that is easy to read.
• Elm makes front-end development simpler.
• Elm provides light operations, which means it involves less fatigue than JavaScript. With JavaScript-heavy apps, a lot of tooling and frameworks can be required to make a simple app. Elm provides a lighter operation by being self-contained.
• Elm comes with creative built-in tools, meaning you don't have to download other packages
• Elm is easy to understand and use once you learn the language
• There is a supportive community with an active creator (Evan Czaplicki)
• Elm has no runtime exceptions, which can occur in JavaScript. Instead Elm gives you warning messages.
• Elm's warning messages are in readable language
• Elm's built-in package manager protects code from minor errors
• And more!

Who is the target audience?

• Developers who want to learn about functional programming and Elm

Requirements

• Basic understanding of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
