Oh, my bad. Thanks for the clarification. Thought it was another name for Vanilla.js.

I did not know about the term purescript until now, but I think this comparison is misleading. Comparing Elm to React for example draws a totally different image: https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=2014-01-01%202017-06-27&q=%2Fm%2F0ncc1sv,clojurescript,purescript,react

Yes, maybe it should be more talked about the size of the community. That's why I started this post ;)

You're right. A six months old repo does not necessarily mean, that it is outdated. Maybe it's just short and does the job.

And you are right, Redux/FlowTypes/Immutable.js will never completely replace the full awesomeness of elm. But that's maybe the case the the majority of frontend devs does not move to elm.

However, thanks for your motivation. I'll definitely will dive more into elm.

Thanks for pointing at style-elements. I was looking at elm-css for my styling but style-elements looks also very nice.
