" summary

Claims that Elm is practical for styling with LM CSS, shows integration with elm-style-animation, and describes measurable wins: fewer crashes, easier refactors, smaller bundles. Exposes tradeoffs: hot reload and time-travel debugging are fragile today, server-side Elm and big-package ecosystem are planned but incomplete, and the package system avoids NPM to guarantee semver and single-version dependency resolution. Tooling examples include Atom + Elmjitsu and desired editor features; roadmap notes Elm 0.19 focuses on compile-time and bundle-size improvements.
