I wonder about the ecosystem of any advanced language running on a JS engine.
Basically, two things may happen in the future:
- all the libs existing in JS are recoded by dedicated fanatics in the advanced language. Then you have a versatile all-purpose development ecosystem with this language.
or
- you rely upon the existing JS ecosystem and libs, and eventually spend your time struggling with the impedance mismatch between JS and your advanced langage.
Did you feel something like that with Purescript, Elm, etc?
