Handle Elm Project with almost zero effort 🍲.
Node >= 12.10.0
npm install -g elm-boil
elm-boil init my-elm-app
cd ./my-elm-app
npm start
Create a production build with npm run build -- --output my-elm-build
Note that you can modify your package.json
and pass your custom parameters to the elm-boil
utility.
Make sure you have Node >= 12.10.0 installed
npm install -g elm-boil
This command scaffolds a new Elm project with the support of scss compilation and Elm environment variable handling as it's described in this answer provided by the creator of elm-spa-example.
Usage:
elm-boil init <project_name>
Project structure:
my-elm-app

This command starts a local webserver helping development phase of the application using live elm and scss compilation plus a livereload functionality.
Usage (inside the project directory):
elm-boil serve [-p|--port=3000] [-h|--host="0.0.0.0"]
This command creates a minified and uglified build inside the project directory. A content hash is added to the file name allowing you to use aggressive caching techniques.
Usage (inside the project directory):
elm-boil build [-o|--output=dist]
A good idea to use the output parameter could be a parallel centered distribution of the same frontend for multiple environments.
- Single dependency
- Support of SCSS
- Lightweight
- Extremely fast
- Ease of use
