That's why I am loving developing applications using Elm. It is a language that has all the necessary tools to build modern websites as well as web applications or even progressive web apps.

It is really shrunk down to the core utilities and has types which means it is safer to use than JavaScript.

I wish types were more of a thing in PHP but its already really good at the moment, especially with the 7.4 release of PHP.

using Elm

thanks for this hint - as I'm not neck-deep in front-end, I often miss new trends, so I'll look into this :)

However I know that often languages are chosen not because of their specific properties, but because of "social" consideration - including how many people use it, how many support and how hard it could be to hire programmers for it etc :)
