Whenever I `elm-make`, I give it the `--warn` option, however, this often makes the compiler generate warnings like "Top-level value `foo` does not have a type annotation.", if there are a lot of these, it would make the real warnings hard to notice.
Sometimes I deliberately omit type annotations for top level values, the reason is that these values are just some strings and numbers, (like CSS colors, some constants, etc.), or even initial model of type Model, there is really no need to annotate them, and annotating them would make the code looks uglier (because in the case of CSS colors, you often have several colors in succession, like `white=Css.hex "aabbcc" \n black=Css.hex "bbccdd" \n green=Css.hex "ccddee", if you annotate them, it becomes verbose). As someone pointed out, a good consequence of type inference is that you don't have to write type declarations if you don't want to, however, I think Elm may have a different opinion on this. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Elm Discuss" group.
