Lessons Learned from Writing 10,000 Lines of Code in Elm

Watch a conference talk from Lambda Days 2024 where Sophie Collard shares valuable insights gained from developing a 10,000 lines of code project using Elm, a strongly typed functional programming language for web applications. Discover how Collard transitioned from React and Vue to embrace Elm's reliable and delightful approach to frontend development after only brief experimentation with in-browser tutorials. Learn why Elm offers a compelling alternative to traditional frontend frameworks, demonstrating how its strong typing and functional programming principles can transform web development from a weakly typed environment into a more structured and maintainable ecosystem. Gain practical perspectives on building and scaling a substantial Elm codebase, with insights particularly valuable for developers seeking more robust and reliable approaches to frontend development.
