Yes, I am so trapped in my Haskell blub that I cannot possibly understand why JavaScript is so amazing.

Have you tried livescript(
http://livescript.net/
) or clojurescript(
https://github.com/emezeske/clojurescript
)? I know that they don't have all of Haskell's features but they do bring Javascript a little bit closer to languages like Haskell.

This is a good example of the ways clojurescript improves on javascript:

I do not particularly care about having a pretty syntax, what I want is the high assurance that the program will not be wrong.
