Starting from fresh, I would honestly recommend PureScript or Elm (and eventually Haskell/GHCJS when that moves to WASM). The benefit you get from the amazing type systems and compilers these have, is worth so much when it comes to refactoring, and later on boarding new people, giving them the confidence to make changes thanks to the help of the compilers.

If you want type-checking, going with React + Flow/Typescript is a wiser decision than choosing Elm. Better support, better ecosystem, much bigger community by a huge difference.

  If you want strong static typing on par with haskell, check out reasonml.

  Flow/TypeScript is not really near the level of the other type systems, so I wouldn't really say that—it is a nice first step though, one that you can do on an already established code base.
