Thats precisely why I suggest TypeScript or Facebook's flow, as interop is a non-issue. They're both just ES6 + optional types.

The trouble with PureScript is that its different enough to have a different cost model (in terms of performance) thanks to the pervasive closure allocations resulting from currying as well as the typeclass dictionaries. Though I'm sure that once the compiler matures and those costs are eliminated, it would be the best choice.

There is also TypeScript's tooling - while the language is less safe, the language service tools are a lot more advanced than PureScript's (I can't say if the same applies for Haxe though)
