I love reading code written in Elm.
I always dive in and have a look. The reason I love it is that Elm is quite restrictive, there is a way of doing things and you can't deviate too much. Therefore reading someone else's code is usually pretty easy.
In addition in Elm you can clone and run an Elm package and see the examples, do some "time travelling debugging" all within 30 seconds :-), again because there is one way of building and debugging things. No "Oh no browserify! I normally use webpack" or "WTF all that global npm shit I need to install" moment.
Just once per computer:
npm install elm
Then do this
git clone ...
elm-reactor
And open your browser to localhost:8080
I'd probably say Elm is more Zen than Python!
