Node did all the actual work &ndash; opened the socket, parsed the HTTP, wrote the response &ndash; and Elm sat in the middle shuffling opaque values between ports. A fun trick, and I still think the passport-through-Elm bit is neat. But the whole time, there was a JavaScript runtime underneath holding the thing up.</p>
