Only if they did not pull from the same root library. With elm make you can specify multiple main files and all main files and everything they use will be included and all merged into one big javascript. If you have two main files, say MyMain.elm and AnotherMain.elm, then in javascript you can instance them via Elm.MyMain.embed(..) and Elm.AnotherMain.embed(..). It is just like compiling a single app, but you just include multiple main files (which may indeed be just a simple do-near-nothing main that just calls the main of a library). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Elm Discuss" group.
