Elm: Build elegant UIs the functional way (And become a better Javascript dev in the process!)

ElmLang (http://elm-lang.org/) is a delightful, purely functional language that compiles down to Javascript.

Elm hits a number of key features that most javascript developers have to assemble themselves from myriad frameworks:

- Purely functional paradigm
- Strong types
- Flux architecture (Elm inspired the popular Redux pattern/library)
- Virtual DOM
- Immutable data
