Go to the Elm home page. View source. Things have swung too far to the JS side. I'm not going to force my users to have to use that. The beauty/accesibility/advantages of the web architecture is being lost to things like this.

That's pretty unfair given the fact that it's 0.17. Before this release, server side rendering was possible but super weird. This release includes most (all?) of the big changes necessary to make the server side rendering story great. This is already basically done but not yet release ready.

Please don't reject something based on its current (admittedly not 1.0!) state based on assumptions about its future! Evan and co. are in fact extremely smart and by no means does anyone consider Elm "done." I'd suggest playing with the language itself. That's the important part - not the state of the current runtime.
