Anybody have any good reviews on elm?
1 comments

It is fun to play with and I managed to pick it up very quickly (after having already spent a significant amount of time learning Haskell).

I am a bit concerned about the lack of typeclasses and what that could mean if I try and build something bigger using it. Maybe I could use Purescript and Elm together.

Type classes are syntactic sugar for explicit dictionary (record) passing.
