    Elm offers a strong type system and immutability, leading to fewer runtime errors and more reliable front-end apps.

    If you enjoy functional programming, Elm might be worth learning, but its ecosystem is much smaller than JavaScript’s.

    Elm is great for small, focused teams who need maintainable, error-free code, but for large teams or companies, React is more versatile.

    The learning curve for Elm is steeper, and the job market isn’t as large as for JavaScript frameworks like React or Vue.

    It’s great for building stable UIs, but the smaller community and fewer libraries compared to React or Angular might be a drawback.
