Elm has a lot of advantages with the way they construct visual shapes, lines, and textures. Elm consists of many 2D graphics such as lines, shapes, text, elements, transforms, colors, linear gradients, and radial gradients, and textures. Learning how to create objects in Elm helped understand how to change and manipulate the different forms of style within the shape and background. Developing little projects that created a variety of different shapes, such as ovals, circles, squares, and pentagon using the commands in elm created a foundation for the knowledge of creating objects within specific elements. By researching multiple techniques to incorporate within these little programs helped broaden the outlook of possible ideas in functional reactive programming.
