TS has led me to a desire for more functionally pure typed code. I'm super interested in learning OCaml and ReasonML right now so I would be interested in under

  I definitely recommend trying them, as it will be a great learning experience. It will probably even make your TS better. What you won't be able to do is to actually ship a product easily, as the ecosystem is virtually non-existent. Documentation - virtually non-existent especially for actually creating working products. Of course, there are exceptions to this (like the Facebook Messenger being written in ReasonML), but people tend to underestimate what kind of engineering effort went into that. If you actually want to do stuff by yourself, use TS.

    And that's the funny bit because a lot of the quirks in TS are actually bits that are needed to integrate with other imperfect tools and libraries and deliver a fully functional product.
