• nvm use 12
• npx create-react-app homeremote-streams-player
• push to git repo
• add .nvmrc with contents: 12
• yarn eject (because the webpack-elm-loader must be added to the webpack config)
• yarn add react-elm-components
• add Buttons.elm in /src/Elm
• add import Elm from 'react-elm-components'; import Buttons from './Elm/Buttons.elm'; to App.jsx
• in App.jsx, replace function App() { ... } by const App = () =>( <Elm src={Buttons.Elm.Elm.Buttons} /> );
• If elm does not exists in this nvm node instance, install it: npm i -g elm
• Make the elm.json: elm init
• Test if properly installed: elm make src/elm/Buttons.elm
• Replace the contents of index.js by export { default as App } from './App.jsx';
• yarn add @storybook/react elm-webpack-loader
• add these scripts to package.json: "storybook": "start-storybook", "build-storybook": "build-storybook -c .storybook -o docs"
• add /stories/index.js
• add /.storybook/*
• add /webpack.config.js and /webpack.elmloader.js
• start storybook for development with yarn storybook

Running

• dev: yarn storybook and in second terminal, cwd to packages/server and run yarn start
• build only the Elm module (useful for debugging): elm make packages/streamplayer-client/src/Elm/Audio.elm
