    It’s on the far bleeding edge as far as languages go, so I doubt any businesses use it. The largest practical ATS program I know of is polyglot: https://github.com/vmchale/polyglot

    I have not programmed in it myself, but I have read about it and watched the presentation A (Not So Gentle) Introduction To Systems Programming In ATS. ATS is a lot closer to C than Haskell or Idris, at least for the kind of programming it is meant for. You can see ATS as a language that allows you to safely do the things you'd normally do in unsafe C (or Rust), by letting you provide an actual proof that what you're doing is OK. I don't think anyone has ever said ATS is particularly pleasant to program in, but there are some crazy people like Vanessa McHale that actually write real programs in it. I still use her polyglot tool for source code listings. It's the only "real world" ATS program I have seen.

    ATS isn't for the faint of the heart: it's an ongoing research topic. I don't think anyone would call it a well defined product yet, and I believe that the author doesn't implement proper error pretty printing for that reason - though someone implemented {a tool for that purpose](https://github.com/sparverius/ats-acc).

    In case you're looking to explore, please, for the sake of your sanity, use this as a wrapper compiler - https://github.com/sparverius/ats-acc. It will make reading the error messages quite bearable. Also, the Google groups (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/ats-lang-users) is quite active.
