[Ann] mkElmDerivation - a different way to build elm apps with nix
2 projects | /r/elm | 18 Mar 2023

Hello r/elm! I have been working on a new way to package Elm applications with Nix. As far as I am aware, the current way to build Elm applications with Nix is to use elm2nix. While this works, it does require the user to manually regenerate certain nix files when updating your project's elm.json, and to commit a binary file used in the build process. I have made mkElmDerivation as a way to get around these two issues and simplify the build process.
