Elm Blog GitHub Series
Part 0 - Introduction
January 4th, 2018

If you're new to Elm and looking for a way to get started, look no further...

Learn Elm while writing a blog on GitHub Pages.

I like to learn by doing. This led me to create a blog in
Elm
and write about how to create a blog in Elm in the process. I also wanted to make it easy to share. Therefore the walkthrough includes hosting it on
GitHub Pages
.
This is a beginner tutorial, assuming no prior knowledge of Elm other than
some light setup
and an overview of Elm syntax on
An Introduction to Elm
in the
"Core Language" section
.
The format attempts to follow Richard Feldman's suggestions in his talk at elm-conf 2017
"Teaching Elm to Beginners"
by providing as few detours from the goal as possible. I deviate a bit from that recommendation at the end, in Part 3, where I summarize some things used that you don't
need
to know.
Without further ado:
Constructive feedback is welcome. Find me on
Twitter
or
GitHub
as @absynce.
Thanks to
Matt King
and
Alex Owens
for early feedback.
If you have any feedback, I would love to hear from you:
