Page.static

pages without any local state.

pages without state.

Look at this page for example, it's just content. We only care about providing a view function that can't send any messages.

We can use elm-spa add to create a page like this:

elm-spa add static Docs.Pages.Static

By choosing the static keyword in the command above, elm-spa generates this for us:

module Pages.Docs.Pages.Static exposing
  ( Model
  , Msg
  , page
  )

import Spa.Page
import Element exposing (..)
import Generated.Docs.Pages.Params as Params
import Utils.Spa exposing (Page)


type alias Model =
    ()


type alias Msg =
    Never


page : Page Params.Static Model Msg model msg appMsg
page =
    Spa.Page.static
        { title = always "Docs.Pages.Static"
        , view = always view
        }



-- VIEW


view : Element Msg
view =
    text "Docs.Pages.Static"

From there, we change the view function to render whatever we like!
