- Elm Task - An Elm specific implementation of Observables (more limited?)
- TS and Elm - Once it compiles it usually runs (Provided you're following the warnings provided in either the compiler output (better) or editor (best) )
- Editor and tooling support?
- TS and Elm - Typed Langs
- Most suitable for complete apps, not just a JS compiler
- Enforces Reactive programming - Angular 2 (Observables) provides the same thing, just not forced.
- Know TS, know JS. Able to contribute back to the community easier.
- Object assignment kinda weird:
{ point | x = 42 }Reason? (overall weird sytnax) - Elm is new, very few libs. Interface to JS has to be done through Ports? TypeScript handles this better, you can get safety out of community type definitions using DefinitelyTyped (tsd, or typings)
- Elm's own benchmark only perfomrs at par, and that apparently is against libs that are already out of date. benchmark
- Elm - An interesting library, perhaps behind the times as the web is adopting Web Components, ES6, Observables, and ShadowDom
- TS - best combination of safety and ease of integration with JavaScript libraries, guaranteed to stay with the evolution of JS as it's just a superset and excellent tooling.
