One could use ports (or learn to use Native) and have some functionality implemented using some other JS libraries. The problem is when the JS stuff one needs is UI related like the JS components that I needed. The costs became too high when I tried to integrate widgets in Elm UI. To be honest, I still don't know if this can be done in a reliable way. Maybe it was just my lack of skill or maybe there should be a warning for the people who what to start with Elm (as opposed to those who start in something else and embed Elm) to forget about all the JS driven components when going for elm-html. :) Also, I might add that not all JS widgets are created equal. Some get by with just some class changes. These are very friendly to an Elm port. >From my experience, porting the Dropdown from SemanticUI was doable, porting JSSOR, not so much. -- There is NO FATE, we are the creators. blog: http://damoc.ro/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Elm Discuss" group.
