About

Best practice example of using elm-mdc, the Elm implementation of Google's Material Design for the web, using hot code swapping.

Install

After cloning the repository:

1. Add the latest elm-mdc:

git submodule init
git submodule update

2. Install all required packages (includes a local copy of the elm compiler):

npm install

Hot code swapping

Test hot loading:

1. Run: npm run hot

2. Point browser at: http://localhost:3009/

3. Change the button text in src/Main.elm and save. Browser should automatically update.

Whenever you change a .scss or .elm file, your browser will be reloaded, but keep its state.

Production

Create production ready files in the dist directory with:

npm run build

Under the hood

The hot reloading works thanks to the elm-hot-webpack-loader.
