Building a Graphical IDE in Elm (...)
summary
A graphical IDE for a PLC language compiles to BEAM and runs distributed on the Erlang VM, with a browser client written in Elm 0.16 using FRP-style startups wired by mailboxes; the Elm side talks via ports to a Bullet/Cowboy websocket bridge called elmrang_connect (library exists but isn’t on Elm package). Rendering uses SVG with CSS at interactive frame rates (~30 FPS target). A live simulation demo runs; editing and graph-layout are incomplete and the 0.17 Elm rewrite blocks straightforward porting.
