You can perfectly do the design-first process with Elm, I thought you were maybe accustomed to Storyboard or something like that.

IMHO you can do design-first process with Elm just like with React. There is no Storyboard equivalent that I'm aware of, but I never found it useful enough but maybe it is, for toolkit/library designers.

I have found that I work differently depending on environment. I do model/types/functionality first if working on my own, but in a corporate environment I typically get designs handed together with some kind of specification, so there I often do "design-first".

That's the best way to handle this I think. I didn't mean that you can't do specific workflows in either framework or language, just that there is a "native ideal way" of how things are done.

Philosophically it's an interesting topic, because there are many arguments for and against either method. It's also way bigger than programming, it's about evolution itself.


I'm don't mean to nitpick, but did you mean storybook instead of storyboard? That's the only project that I've found which sounds like what you're talking about

https://github.com/storybooks/storybook


Yes, totally. I must have it confused with iOS' storyboards.
