Same. We founded on Haskell but had some need to more front-end oriented code. Can say Elm was never considered because I was hearing this weird stuff back in 2016--not to mention it would just make hiring even harder. Can't trust tooling that will be capricious.

What did you settle on, considering you were otherwise Haskell focused?

Typescript. We try not to be type/pl theory fanatics. Choose your tools well. Haskell is great since the core of our product is an interpreter/compiler with multiple stages. But I don't wanna use it everywhere.
Personally I'd be using JS (or TS) + jQuery. Almost no dependencies, but a lot more manual. No one would be happy on the team if we did this of course. And it can be impractical
