After downloading, running elm-make in the extracted directory should yield a renderable example.html.

module SignupForm exposing (..)
-- This is where our Elm logic lives.`module SignupForm` declares that this is
-- the SignupForm module, which is how other modules will reference this one
-- if they want to import it and reuse its code.
import Html.App
-- Elm’s "import" keyword works similarly to "require" in node.js.
import Html exposing (..)
-- The “exposing (..)” option says that we want to bring the Html module’s contents
-- into this file’s current namespace, so that instead of writing out
-- Html.form and Html.label we can use "form" and "label" without the "Html."
import Html.Events exposing (..)
-- This works the same way; we also want to import the entire
-- Html.Events module into the current namespace.
import Html.Attributes exposing (id, type', for, value, class)
-- With this import we are only bringing a few specific functions into our
-- namespace, specifically "id", "type'", "for", "value", and "class".
view model =
form [ id "signup-form" ]
[ h1 [] [ text "Sensational Signup Form" ]
, label [ for "username-field" ] [ text "username: " ]
, input [ id "username-field", type' "text", value model.username ] []
, label [ for "password" ] [ text "password: " ]
, input [ id "password-field", type' "password", value model.password ] []
, div [ class "signup-button" ] [ text "Sign Up!" ]
]
-- Take a look at this starting model we’re passing to our view function.
-- Note that in Elm syntax, we use = to separate fields from values
-- instead of : like JavaScript uses for its object literals.

view { username = "", password = "" }
