I can confirm that. You just need to use elm-github-package, which allows you to install Elm packages from the official repository and github. That's exactly what I'm going in NumElm to be able to write Kernel code, https://github.com/jscriptcoder/numelm...
I'm really running into lots of walls on this subject. I'd be super happy if we had TypedArray views in Kernel code. Currently I'm trying to figure out how to walk a strided Array. Imagine we have a buffer like this: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9], with shape [3, 3], square matrix. Strides for this is [3, 1] --> [1, 2, 3 | 4, 5, 6 | 7, 8, 9]. If I change the stride to [2, 2], then I get [1, 3 | 7, 9] --> 2x2 matrix. I need to implement map and fold functions, and to be able to do that I need to walk the Array: 1 -> 3 -> 7 -> 9... My functional programming skills are being challenged here ;-) Fran On Thu, Nov 23, 2017 at 11:26 AM 'Rupert Smith' via Elm Discuss < elm-discuss@googlegroups.com> wrote: > > On Thursday, November 23, 2017 at 2:28:50 AM UTC, Matthieu Pizenberg wrote: > >> >> Could JsArray.elm by made to work with JavaScript typed arrays? >>> https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Typed_arrays >>> >> >> That was exactly what I was wondering.
