Just curious and who knows, maybe someone will adopt it or develop something new based on its ideas.

Elm programming language. Arguably not dead but somewhat incomplete and not actively worked on.

A few commits recently.

There are lots of competing MLs you can use instead:

- F# (Fable)

- ReasonML

- OCaml (Bucklescript)

- Haskell

- PureScript

IMO the problem with Elm was actually The Elm Architecture.
