The Elmish home page doesn't show new users how to install and get up and running with Elmish--at least that I could find.

Would you be open to a pull request adding a "Get Started" tab (maybe to the right of the "Doc" tab?) that would detail how to install dotnet core, install the fable-elmish-react template, and create a new app using the template?

If not, feel free to close this issue.

I always thought that pre-requsite to Starting with Elmish is Starting with Fable, which would include the common tooling installation. I'd absolutely welcome a PR that links to Fable's getting started and adds elmish-specific steps, like installing a template - the template might be out of date though, as @MangelMaxime is focusing on Fulma, but I'd welcome a PR for that as well.

Indeed for now, the easiest way to start with Elmish is probably by using fulma-minimal which provide you a project configured with FAKE5 for the build system and a working Elmish application.

If you are not intested in Fulma you can remove the dependency.


For the PR contents, I think we can provide 2 things:

  1. Do as @et1975 suggested, by linking to Fable getting started so if Fable evolve the guide will still be up to date. And then add the elmish-specific steps like add the dependencies, and a step by step guide to build a minimal Elmish app.
  2. Add a link to updated Elmish templates and/or fulma-minimal template.
