Description
At present one of our projects takes **8 _minutes_** to download and compile the Elm App:
## Todo
+ [ ] Figure out how to cache elm dependencies on CircleCI (_we will do Travis-CI second_)
+ [ ] Apply to CI Client Project.
+ [ ] Write-up steps with sample code in `learn-elm` and link to from `learn-circleci`
`Priority-1` because this wastes time _every_ CI build which slows down our dev workflow... ⏳ 💸 🔥
@SimonLab if you have time to help investigate this please go for it! (_otherwise I will look at it soon..._)
Contributor guide
Research direction
Read the CircleCI configuration for the CI Client Project and the existing guidance in learn-elm and learn-circleci. Confirm how Elm dependencies are currently downloaded, then verify that repeated builds reuse the cache and document the working steps with sample code in learn-elm, linked from learn-circleci.
