www.haskell.org VS purescript

Haskell - a general-purpose functional language with many unique properties (purely functional, lazy, expressive types, STM, etc). You mentioned you dabbled in Haskell, why not try it again? (I've written about 7 things I learned from Haskell, and my book is linked at them bottom if you're interested :) )

Where you go is entirely up to you. According to haskell.org, Haskell jobs are a-plenty. sigh

✨ Supported by http://haskell.org

Btw here is the repo I am talking about: https://github.com/haskell-infra/www.haskell.org .

I just jumped into the wiki "Write Yourself a Scheme in 48 hours" which looks pretty good. (although some of the text explanation is hard to understand without context).. I used cabal to set up the starter project. Sublime editor seems to work OK and I just use the git Bash shell on windows to compile the program directly on the command line. So maybe this is all good enough for now (?). It seems installing it from haskell.org with ghcup was more straight forward than I thought.

We made or are making some (small for now) contributions to projects like Cabal and haskell.org, and we hope to ramp it up as time goes.

Maths 2 exists qnd it's called Haskell

Yeah, definitely. We're working on adding a guide[1] like that to haskell.org as we speak :)

If you have a chance, you could look over the PR and tell me whether this is roughly what you're thinking of.

p.s. I am also working on a PR for haskell.org that would hopefully make the webpage a bit more friendly for newcomers, also focused on clearly outlining the journey to get started with Haskell easily. It is not as opinionated as this blog post, but it still tried to make things a bit more straightforward: https://github.com/Martinsos/www.haskell.org/compare/master...Martinsos:www.haskell.org:getting-started .

Done

Naturally I’d recommend using a better language such as ReScript or Elm or PureScript or F#‘s Fable + Elmish, but “React” is the king right now and people perceive TypeScript as “less risky” for jobs/hiring, so here we are.

Unless you want to switch to https://www.purescript.org/.

PureScript[1][2] seems pretty alive these days. From my relatively small, self-contained experiments, it's a lot more flexible and expressive than Elm at the expense of (maybe?) being a bit harder to learn up-front.

*cough* I mean Purescript.

Assuming this is a PS knock, fwiw this went away a good bit ago: https://github.com/purescript/purescript/releases/tag/v0.14.2
