elm: Compile an Elm file, output the result to an `index.html` file.
$ elm make ${source}
try on your machine

The command elm make ${source} is used to compile and build an Elm program into JavaScript code. Here's a breakdown of each component of the command:

  • elm: It is the command-line interface utility for using Elm.
  • make: It is a command within the elm utility used to compile Elm code into JavaScript.
  • ${source}: It is a placeholder for the path or file name of the Elm source code file that you want to compile. You should replace ${source} with the actual path or file name.

Once executed, this command will compile the Elm source code file into JavaScript code. The resulting JavaScript code can then be executed in a web browser or any other suitable environment.
