I was familiar with Haskell but I wouldn't consider myself a functional programmer, most of my career has been on the Object Oriented side of things. I actually found it to be quite approachable. It's charm has stayed so far as I've found it offers a lot of advantages in terms of code re-use. The elm-lang.org resources, hosted Core lib documentation were most of what I've used. They have live examples in a web repl that is helpful. I would recommend checking with their git though as the pace of the languages development can go through spurts.
