The syntax is closer to Haskell than Ocaml.

Foe example types in Ocaml usually start with lower letter.

Also Elm has "Maybe", just like Haskell, instead of "option" of Ocaml.

Also in Elm, like in Haskell you would write "List Sometype", while in Ocaml it is "sometype list".

Yeah the syntax is clearly Haskell, the semantics are more ML-ish.
