Question: why purescript? #24

Closed danielcnorris closed 10 years ago

danielcnorris commented 10 years ago

Hi Chris,

First of all, thanks for this incredible resource.

I'm a relative newcomer to Haskell but am excited to try out a Haskell-like solution in my frontend work. Would you mind expanding at all on how you've decided to use or advocate purescript for this purpose compared to some of the other options like haste or elm? What are your thoughts as to how viable purescript is currently in a production application?

Thanks, Daniel

Haste and GHCJS have gotten easier to use so I'd be up for changing it to be more neutral anyway.
