A peek in to Elm Architecture
summary
A working Elm page gets built live: a sender UI with recipient and message fields, a send button that issues an HTTP POST, a JSON decoder that parses a {status, clientId} response and updates status text. Architecture uses Model View Update, update functions return (Model, Cmd Msg), and component updates are composed via Cmd.map. Compiler catches most errors before runtime; the demo deploys as compiled JavaScript but warns about multiple Elm runtimes slowing the browser.
