Terminology

Elm specifiers

As described by elm-filt --help, an elm specifier is a string that uniquely describes an elm function or variable in some elm module. An elm specifier takes the form [author/package:]Module1[. ...[ModuleN]].functionOrVariableName. If [author/package:] is omitted, the elm specifier refers to an elm function or variable in the current application. There must be at least one module name and each should be followed by a dot, the package specifier is separated from the first module name by a colon.

Examples of elm specifiers include elm/core:String.fromFloat, Main.main and mdgriffith/elm-ui:Element.text.

For elm functions and variables in the current application, the elm compiler will generate JavaScript as if they function or variable was in a package called author/project.
