I tried Haskell for 5 years
I think a lot of Haskeller's will find Elm's type system to be limited and frustrating. Even for simple things the solution in Elm is that you have to write a bunch of boilerplate.

I had this experience. However, starting out I think it'd be a much more gentle introduction.
For other haskellers, Purescript seems to solve this problem.

I haven't gotten to give PS more than a cursory look but the row polymorphism and structural typing seems to really compliment JS semantics.
