Elm uses type inference to detect corner cases and give friendly hints. NoRedInk switched to Elm about four years ago, and 300k+ lines later, they still have not had to scramble to fix a confusing runtime exception in production. The compiler guides you safely through your changes, ensuring confidence even through the most wide-reaching refactorings in unfamiliar codebases. Including your own, six months later. All Elm programs are written in the same pattern, eliminating doubt and lengthy...

GHCJS is a Haskell-to-JavaScript compiler that reuses GHC’s front end to compile Haskell source into JavaScript for execution in browsers and Node.js. It aims to preserve Haskell’s semantics—including laziness and rich types—by shipping a small runtime and shims for core libraries. Developers write normal Haskell, use Cabal/Stack to build, then bundle the generated JavaScript alongside required support code. Interoperability with the JavaScript world is provided through a foreign-function...

Asterius is a Haskell toolchain that compiles to WebAssembly, enabling Haskell programs to run in the browser and other Wasm hosts. It builds on GHC, lowers Haskell code to WebAssembly modules, and links them with a lightweight JavaScript runtime for I/O, GC interaction, and host integration. The toolchain provides commands to build and link (ahc/ahc-link), bundle assets, and target both browser and Node environments. Interop is a core focus: Haskell functions can call into JavaScript and...
