If you want a good language that turns into Javascript I recommend PureScript

True, but PS is general purpose while Svelte is a DSL. They did a good job at creating a non-invasive DSL that JS developers can use without much learning
I did a stint of Elm and it taught me a lot. But I found I prefer dirtier languages like elixir and typescript. I would not recommend the pure languages for anything other than learning FP.
