Question about the Reason project in general
In reality, most folks that developed BuckleScript frontends with ReasonML switched to ReScript syntax and are happy with it. Some felt more friction because of their reliance on PPXes or FP-heavy libraries (like Relude) and those people tend to use the Melange fork of BuckleScript or they switched to js_of_ocaml.

Is there a statically typed functional programming language that doesn't take purity so seriously?
TL;DR: Reason is, and always has been, independent of ReScript (formerly BuckleScript) and is still actively maintained. If you want to use Reason or OCaml to make native code you can. If you want to compile JS from OCaml or Reason you also still can, but you'll want to use either js_of_ocaml or a BuckleScript fork named Melange that was made in response to the BuckleScript/ReScript people's shenanigans. And if you only care about JS-like syntax and JS output, you can use ReScript.

Why is Elm more popular than most of its similar alternatives?
Personally, I just use OCaml and compile to JavaScript with Js_of_ocaml. Js_of_ocaml has been stable and actively maintained for a decade, and I don't have to worry if some superficial syntactic change that affects nothing but ASCII art is going to break my code.

query-json: A story of cross-compilation with Reason
The compilation to JavaScript is the sweet section of this blog post since we are using OCaml (under the hood while writing Reason), and it allows us to compile directly to JavaScript using js_of_ocaml.

query-json: A story of cross-compilation with Reason
You won't have the facility to write frontend code with React, but I'm sure it will change soon since there's a current implementation of React in jsso jsoo-react.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing js_of_ocaml and jsoo-react you can also consider the following projects:
melange - A mixture of tooling combined to produce JavaScript from OCaml & Reason
yojson - Low-level JSON parsing and pretty-printing library for OCaml
reason - Simple, fast & type safe code that leverages the JavaScript & OCaml ecosystems
bs-emotion - BuckleScript bindings to Emotion
dream - Tidy, feature-complete Web framework
streaming - Fast, safe and composable streaming abstractions.
query-json - Faster, simpler and more portable implementation of `jq` in Reason
scriptum - No-Frills Functional Programming Lib Augmenting Javascript/Node.js
sedlex - An OCaml lexer generator for Unicode
