Elm Native

Build mobile apps with elm using NativeScript API. elm/http works with this library as well!

We can build simple apps like counter

or something like a blog

or even complex app with page transitions, modals, dialog, and much more!

How it works

We will use CustomElements feature to create mobile UI elements with nativescript objects and control the nativescript object from elm.

Here's a simple representation of how UI elements are created

Elm -> Nativescript -> Mobile

When we listen for / receive an event,

Mobile -> Nativescript -> Elm

Consider this flow while building an application. This will help you to overcome performance issues if you encounter them.

Use the attributes from Native.Attributes and NOT Html.Attributes

Checkout examples

Dialog
Page transitions animations
Modal page
Execution of OS specific property assignment and Native code (Be careful)
Navigating page back and forth using frame functions
Has bindings for all Nativescript UI elements
Calling methods/setting attributes in the event object within elm (Will be improved in future)
Simple and complex listviews templates
Define and use custom nativescript elements / plugins and much more

More features will be added soon.

This project tooks months of research and days of work. If you feel like it is valuable to the elm community, please consider supporting this project
