A TL;DR for those of you who don’t have 5 minutes:
I created a tool to help Depop Sellers track of their sales/profits.
- There’s a lot of need for this, as Depop has millions of users, yet offer no out-of-the-box reporting tools to their sellers.

I hope to provide some clarity for others that are coming from Javascript or, more specifically, React.
Throughout this article, I’ll be framing things as if I’m teaching a React dev. I’ll try to relate things back to Javascript and explain concepts in…
Recently I’ve been delving into Elm, dinking around with small personal projects with the hopes of transitioning the technology to something bigger in the future. I’ve ran into fairly big pain points that no amount of stack overflow or official Elm docs seemed to solve. Lots of these pain-points came from the fact that Elm 0.19 is fairly new. That, being paired with it’s relatively small community, creates a shortage in resources for newcomers of Elm. Elm is still a niche language. When you pair that niche language with an even more niche library, the exact documentation that you need…
