Another BEAM language. This one has (some?) static typing, and (bleach) JavaScript -like syntax. Is there a tldr of why write another of these instead of using an existing one? There are already a few. Even a port of typescript to beam might be a good approach. I agree with the concept of a typed functional language on BEAM but this doesn't look attractive. I liked PureScript in the JS world but I think it lost out to typescript.
Not sure if this is the right answer I'm not familiar with that ecosystem: They have comparisons on their site
