[elm-discuss] Re: WebRTC and Elm
Hi Mitch Were you able to create writeup? I am about to start using Elm with WebRTC.

Hi Mitch, I am very much interested in your writeup. I am writing a prototype for an app. I am just building the front-end, the UI in Elm. No back-end. And I thought... wouldn't it be nice to share the in-memory data between browsers that have the app open. So, I looked at WebRTC. But, then I found Orbit-db (https://github.com/haadcode/orbit-db). A distributed peer-to-peer database build on top of IPFS. It is still very beta software. I got some basic functionality working using ports. Unfortunately, the database does not seem to sync between clients... But, I like the idea. Building Elm apps with storage in a distributed cloud. So, I am looking forward to your writeup!

Hi Mitch, thanks a lot for sharing. Have you created port of some existing JS library or created ELM implementation from scratch?
