This looks fantastic. Very similar to Haskell. I've always liked Haskell, but it doesn't have the library support for most of my work. Looks like I can use Elm for my front-end scripting. How well supported is it, and can it easily interface with native javascript?

FWIW he does seem to be very responsive, and the mailing list is full of people who'll help. > can it easily interface with native javascript? There is a "port" mechanism, it is described here: https://github.com/evancz/elm-html-and-js
