PureScript is a strict, purely functional programming language inspired by Haskell which compiles to readable JavaScript with a simple foreign function interface and no runtime dependency.

JavaScript Jabber. …people will find PureScript useful for the same reason that I created it and why I find it useful, which is that you want something fairly close to JavaScript like TypeScript is, [but with] the nice syntax and types that you get from Haskell.
Google (28 April 2015). "Exhaustiveness Checker for PureScript". Google Summer of Code. The main goal from this project is to provide an exhaustiveness checker for pattern match errors that allows non-exhaustive patterns to exist, yet ensures that a pattern match error does not occur and thus avoiding unexpected crashes while executing a program. {{cite web}}: |author1= has generic name (help)

Enhance PureScript's Pursuit tool to provide better searching by names, searching by types, and a centralized documentation store—the three of these together should make it significantly easier to discover and use PureScript libraries. {{cite web}}: |author1= has generic name (help)
