elm-ui VS Symfony

It's been a few years, but last time I built a non-trivial Elm app, I used elm-ui. Otherwise, I've used either vanilla CSS with the Meyer reset (am I dating myself?) or SCSS.

"clean" means you are used to it. ELM is a totally new language (not like JS and TS) based on a paradigm (functional programming) that you are probably not used to. And it is based on the ML type system (different from what you are used to). So it is a lot of new things at once. "Reinventing the wheel" is an unfortunate side-effect of using a different way to do things. Some things can be copied verbatim, some are totally different. Check out "elm-ui" (https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/mdgriffith/elm-ui/latest/) for a very different and refreshing view in UI code in ELM (that will appeal to the mostly-backend developers in your workplace).

I use Elm for my project. Once you accept thinking the way it wants you to, it's a delight to develop front-end with it.

Side advantage, Elm-UI frees you from CSS: https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/mdgriffith/elm-ui/late... it's like Tailwind but deeply intertwined with the language.

The last advice I could give is to try elm-ui (https://github.com/mdgriffith/elm-ui) for your user interface. It's amazing how great that is compared to traditional ways of building a frontend layout.

The library elm-ui makes it easy to create a nice user interface. I am unaware of anything similar for Rust+WASM, so I would have been forced to deal with HTML and CSS.

There are several things named elm-ui. It's the author of a different library than what is usually understood when someone refers to elm-ui (which is https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/mdgriffith/elm-ui/late...)

Foregoing CSS all together by using a different approach to UI construction (elm-ui)

Right now I'm just using the built in from the UI library I used for the sake of ease as I didn't find a perfect solution and it seemed good enough for now: Github Link to source, which it looks like would classify your laptop as a tablet, whoops!

Let's have a look at the class EventSourceHttpClient and try to use it in Symfony\Component\Webhook\Server\Transport. It's an entirely hypothetical example to illustrate the point.

Symfony is an open-source PHP framework developed by SensioLabs which has a thriving community of over 300,000 developers with 29k stars and 9.4k forks on GitHub. It provides a set of reusable PHP components and a development methodology for building complex and scalable web applications. It is recommended due to its advanced features and user-friendly environment. The user can also develop microservices.

Would be great to see for https://github.com/symfony/symfony, thanks! As that's a monorepo it may provide a challenge to the tool.

As Shopware is mostly based on the Symfony framework, which is in turn based on the PHP language, we should also consider learning about the basics, which will also be useful for other frameworks apart from Shopware, like Symfonycasts, symfony.com, php.net.

Use PHP frameworks such as Symfony. It cares about all the stuff.

It caused much of the internal of Drupal to be re-written. This included how it was extended. With previous major versions you learned about new features and APIs. They followed mostly existing design patterns so it was easy to learn and updates your extensions for. With Symfony you had to learn whole new systems and ways of doing things. It was like learning something entirely new. And, porting extensions to it was far more work and time.

Also, the updates made Drupal slower while consuming far more system resources for the same thing. This increased costs to operate.

Internally, the kernel executes a controller, that is a callable, passing it an array of arguments. For each of these arguments, Symfony calculates its value using services that implement the ValueResolverInterface1.

Drupal is one of the content management systems aka CMS. It has long history and good stability, which is based on PHP and Symfony.
