I was thinking or rather dreaming about this. CSS for font styling, etc. is 
just fine. But, CSS for positioning and layout is just way too complicated.

So, I was thinking. Elm has this great event handling system and can 
efficiently update the DOM. I thought about building a demo of a HTML 
layout that is responsive and where the responsiveness is handled by Elm. I 
was actually thinking about some kind of constraint language you could use 
right inside Elm. GSS or rather the underlying Cassowary library would be a 
great candidate.

It would be great if you could define your layout in a constraint base 
layout right from within Elm. Elm being a functional language would be 
great for this. This could potentially be the HTML alternative for the 
Graphics.layout library.

As said... I was just dreaming about it. I have neither the time nor the 
expertise to build something like this.
