PureScript would almost fit :-). It would just need a modern Haskell backend but having a strict language built on a lazy-one is probably not the best idea :-).

You can avoid lazy behaviour entirely in Haskell if you want to, so your purescript to haskell compiler can just only generate contrived haskell code that doesn't exhibit laziness

Idris maybe? If Idris has easy interop with the Rust ecosystem, we'd have a great backend (and with wasmer possibly also fontend) option.

I was also thinking as Rust as a backend for a FP language in the last day. I found some Ocaml binding for Rust. It would be interesting to see how it fits.
