siksik2447y@coolq afaik there's some overhead, check Day and ghcjs for more details (I just discovered them)
@Letmecode I agree with you, but there's a small case for this. Imagine having the backend in Haskell and being able to share types and other definitions! Quite the thing :) -
One of my colleagues at work is working on implementing his own haskell backend/frontend thing with full compile time type checks for requests. It seems to be a really powerful concept.

@siksik I asked him, he's doing Rust/Purescript instead. Still pretty much the same concept, he opened it up on github this weekend: https:///github.com/tomhoule/...

Today I discovered that Haskell can be compiled to js. This is both wonderful and disturbing: having the strengths of Haskell feels right and encouraging, but having to transpile it to js feels unnaturally dirty.
Still, I'm not sure I can apply this at my job in any future, but I might have just the case in the brewing.
