In Elm tutorial you can read this: In Elm, commands (Cmd) are how we tell the runtime to execute things that > involve side effects. This caused me to look into Cmd as a first reaction when trying to build something where a child had to communicate state changes through websockets (only present in the parent). I hit a rubber wall and only found a good way of handing the situation when Josh pointed me to the "OutMsg pattern" he used. As a newbie, I struggle to grasp whether I should tap into the Cmd module, and if so, how to do that. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Elm Discuss" group.
