PureScript has what I'd call some stark issues.

1. Its maintenance/activity appear sporadic at best. 2. It's inscrutable. Whenever I've had issues, I don't have any idea even how to approach solving them. Half the time they reference in-depth mathematical terms that just are not relevant to anyone who isn't implementing the language 95% of the time. 3. The tooling often just... doesn't work. I'll go to run a commend given in the official tutorial, and it fails in a way that is just beyond me, as an experienced engineer.

TBH, I'd really love to use it. I've been finding myself using `fp-ts` on many of my projects for just such a reason, and have even set up `unplugin-auto-import` to automatically detect and import those modules, so it's like I have more in my stdlib. I've even thought of making a true language out of these primitives.

Opposite experience with Purescript. I've never had an issue that hasn't been resolved on the Purescript discourse within 24 hours of posting. The core team in my experience are all very dedicated and helpful.
