Fully agree.
I hear good things about OCaml? Anyone tried that?
I asked chatgpt for a few languages with a good typesystem and it suggested ocaml among other (scala, rust, haskell, f#)
Then asked for a 100 line ocaml REST API example with a popular framework and db lib.. and it looks mostly like Haskell.
edit: async is done with monads
If it looks mostly like Haskell but has better tooling, I'm in. I have yet to manage to successfully set up a Haskell environment on my own PC. ๐ I am obviously missing something.
I think ghcup is the simplest way
