- rkangel 8y agoI would expect that interop wouldn't be trivial - the impedance mismatch between a mutable and immutable world would be difficult. I didn't know of BuckleScript though and that faces a similar problem, so it's interesting if it significantly better.
- sli 8y agoPureScript's interop is fairly easy, too. Just foreign imports, which I personally prefer over mixing languages like you might do in BuckleScript/ReasonML with their brace syntax (or might not), but it's still better than this weird message passing thing that Elm does.
