Elm is really cool language that's pushing a lot of boundaries. Use it for learning or for small projects.

TypeScript is a highly practical and pragmatic language. Use it for anything serious.

what boundaries do you think Elm is pushing as a language?

It is a cool language and platform, but to me it looks like with time it has actually become more conservative.

TS on the other hand appears to contain some interesting new things on each release (possibly too many). Case in point, Lookup and Mapped types in 2.1 seem like a brilliant idea.
