- bazoom42 4y agoWhy? Cant you just use Elm if you prefer that? Typescript is specifically constrained by being a superset of JavaScript, Elm does not have that limitation.
- yakshaving_jgt 4y agoI suppose I should have appended "/s". I find it amusing/sad that there is simultaneously reticence in adopting Elm and an eagerness to gradually copy all of its features as the JS crowd learn that typed pure FP isn't such a bad idea after all.
- bazoom42 4y agoThere are significant downsides to using a niche language.
- yakshaving_jgt 4y agoOk, and there are significant downsides to using JavaScript, so pick your poison.
- bazoom42 4y agoThat goes without saying :)
