I'm getting into FP via Elm and Elixir. Both are quite accessible and have helpful communities. Elm is a gem, I think. Static typing and Elm architecture (not to mention whitespace, bracket forest-free environment, elm-format, helpful compiler and a good handful of other things) feel like a cure to the front-end madness. I'm still wrapping my head around Elixir, but -- damn -- is pattern matching nice :)
