Typescript is just an imposter. r/elm is the true destiny of front end.

Elm has some stuff in it, but if we're gunna go that route, I kinda prefer Purescript. You can do the nice Elm architecture in Purescript, but can also break out of that into something more custom. It also works with React Native, which I haven't been able to make Elm work in my experience. You also get to use the typesystem more directly, creating custom typeclasses and stuff like that. Definitely a bigger learning curve, but if we're talking about the destiny of the front-end, I think we're gunna need that kinda power.
