And Elm is implemented in Haskell ;]
I've been meaning to try Elm since I've been playing around with Haskell more and more. Purescript is relatively similar but allows you to build more than frontends. It seems Elm has grown quite a lot in popularity though.
- dmix 9y agoPureScript has great potential. I'm very excited for what it offers the future of Javascript and even Haskell. It's on a whole other level than Elm. The only problem from my experience trying to use it in a project is that since it's alpha software a) it's changing so fast that APIs/libraries are very unstable to the point they are almost unusable if you try to follow newish releases (this was 6-8 months ago, I hope/expect stability has improved) and b) you have to be intimately familiar with Haskell. As the OP's article describes about Haskell with PureScript the documentation situation is even worse, the documentation is 90% "hard" and 10% "soft". Which is fine if you know Haskell, or even a bit of Elm, but it's very tough coming in as a newbie of both Haskell and PS.
