Ali. Keep trying it again! I've kept coming back to it because of my conviction that Functional Programming skills will improve my programming whatever language I develop in.

I've been doing a bunch of FP in JavaScript recently, and I love it there! Just don't think I love a fully functional language (or the syntax of it!)

The syntax or the concepts?
I feel like a lot of it just extends from lambda calc. There are definitely differences syntactically amongst for langs....just look at erlang and compare it to elm.
