I'm currently learning Elm[0] and OCaml[1]. Elm is a nice introduction to the ML family of languages (and FRP!) because you get to do so in the context of client-side web programming (something I'm familiar with). I'm then pivoting this knowledge to help me learn OCaml.
I find the ML languages fascinating in their approach to programming. I think there is a pragmatic side to MLs that gets ignored due to their background in academia. The way you set out to model your programs is interesting and a nice change coming from languages like Ruby/JS where you tend to run around with your head cut off.
