I asked chatgpt for a few languages with a good typesystem and it suggested ocaml among other (scala, rust, haskell, f#)

Then asked for a 100 line ocaml REST API example with a popular framework and db lib.. and it looks mostly like Haskell.

edit: async is done with monads

If it looks mostly like Haskell but has better tooling, I'm in. I have yet to manage to successfully set up a Haskell environment on my own PC. 😅 I am obviously missing something.

I used it either through my distro's package or using stack install. there's also cabal install, but that doesn't install the compiler, at least not in 2017 when I played with it.
