It's really not that bad/complicated to learn (HKT's and PureScript) - but you gain some incredible cool powers ;)
To give you a small glimpse: if you understand what comparable is about in Elm you basically understood type-classes. But instead of have a fixed set of them that only works with a predefined subset you can add you own types to them (it's called making your type an instance of it) and you can even define your own type-classes if you want, but that is rarely needed.
If you understood what Cmd is about you are ready to talk about effect system - but again you can do it on a level where you are in more control of the runtime and where you are allowed to use effects (still everything is pure).
this framework is very Elm-inspired and you should get a good idea (normally I would advise PUX but right now the documentation was not updated for purescript-0.12 and so this might confuse you too much)
