FP like erlang, elixir and haskell are perfectly elegant if only their core language features are used.


Limited experience with Haskell personally but my impression is that Elixir really only has the core, whereas in Haskell it is effectively standard to use language extensions? I don't know how that changes the experience.


We shouldn’t be counting Haskell’s language extensions imo. They’re extensions because they were not accepted in the language (and might never be).
