Notes from Elm Slack, regarding elm and elm-format binaries:

Off-the-mill Haskell binaries have few dependencies, the one of the Haskell runtime usually. Which is some basics + gmp.

I think they are compiled in Alpine using Docker.

elm 0.19.0 is a fully static binary (linked to musl libc), elm-format is not (like previous versions of elm).

For example:

{-| Doc.

    >>> import Preparation
    >>> a =
    ..>   Preparation.prepare 1

    >>> doSomething 2
    ExpectedOutput

-}
doSomething : Int -> ...

Shows all errors instead of just the first.

Stuff like

func : Type

The Elm REPL will then input func automatically.
Need to figure out a way to handle that.
Same case statements and things like that.

Weird implementation detail:
The REPL will often leave an empty | line and when pushing enter at that point, it'll end the input block.

Debug.log statements print stuff before the output, this should be ignored by the parser.

Currently

>>> import A

>>> import B

>>> doTest

works, but not ...

>>> import A
>>> import B
>>> doTest

Instead of saying Cannot parse REPL output.

Not sure yet whether or not this is a good idea.

When the module is imported it should check for compile errors and report them.
