It is actually quite easy to use them from elm.
There is one thing I have noticed with SPA (single page app) login forms. Many

freed() memory which may require freezing your PC's RAM to access,
I mean as actual living object within the javascript state.
This is the fourth and last part of my entry about leaving macOS.
