Key differences between Elm and Haskell
Characteristic | Elm | Haskell |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Elm has a simpler and more beginner-friendly syntax compared to Haskell. | Haskell has a more complex and advanced syntax compared to Elm. |
Paradigm | Elm is a functional programming language with strong emphasis on immutability and pure functions. | Haskell is a purely functional programming language that supports lazy evaluation and type inference. |
Typing | Elm has a strong static type system with type inference. | Haskell has a strong static type system with type inference. |
Performance | Elm is designed for front-end web development and focuses on performance optimizations for web applications. | Haskell is a general-purpose language and can be used for various applications, including high-performance computing. |
Libraries and frameworks | Elm has a smaller ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to Haskell. | Haskell has a larger ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to Elm. |
Community and support | Elm has a smaller community compared to Haskell, but it has an active and supportive community. | Haskell has a larger and more established community with extensive support and resources. |
Learning curve | Elm has a relatively low learning curve, especially for developers familiar with functional programming concepts. | Haskell has a steeper learning curve due to its advanced features and concepts. |
