When I started working on my thesis in 2011, I stumbled upon this academic subfield called Functional Reactive Programming (FRP). By stripping that approach down to its simplest form, I ended up with something way easier to learn than similar functional languages. Signals meant piles of difficult concepts just were not necessary in Elm. ……
As The Elm Architecture emerged, it became clear that you could do almost all your Elm programming without thinking about signals at all. ……
In the end, it was possible to remove signals because Elm has been moving towards an explicit emphasis on concurrency for quite some time now. ……Just like with my thesis, Concurrent FRP, the goal is to get the benefits of concurrency for free. ……
Note: Interested readers may find Lucid Synchrone interesting. Unfortunately for me, I had no idea my thesis had so much in common with synchronous programming languages at the time, but the connections are quite striking. I might argue that Elm was never about FRP.
