Ellie – An Elm Live Editor

By "live" is the intention that the program will recompile without losing the state of the running app? I remember seeing a cool Elm demo of that, but it seems like Ellie requires recompilation.

My thoughts exactly. Title is misleading. If I have to click compile or hot reload it's not really a live editor. You can't change values and watch them update on the fly.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ idk it's just a neat name. the env is more "live" than downloading the platform, setting up an editor and running the compiler and package manager from the terminal. i mean, is the name elm misleading because it's not a programming language for trees?

Essentially just asking if my browser was running it correctly :)
