I never tried it but I have been curious since watching the video youtube.com/watch?v=9kGoaUqcq4A. It seems that purescript is more for folks coming from Haskell. Coming from Javascript, Elm has probably a gentler learning curve
You sre right, purescript is a lot more complex, but I personally found elm limiting, so purescript was what I was looking for.
As for the downsides, there is a really good ui framework called halogen, but it doesnt have any docs for it's latest release, and a few react wrappers which have some problems with svg, so theres still work to do in this area.
Another thing ps has is the ability to run on the back-end by wrapping nodejs modules.

Hi! Just so you know, you can create apps in elm for use in the backend, using Platform.worker.
I never managed to get my head around Halogen, did any examples in particular help you out?
