AFAIK, Halogen for Purescript is about as FP as it gets in the front-end world. It’s pretty complicated but Halogen takes advantage of “free monads”. Perhaps you are looking for something even more rigorous since you mentioned Idris but I figured I’d mention that one.
I’m learning it now and it has not been easy. I tried to port a simple vanilla JavaScript dynamic draggable table over to Halogen and it has not been fun at all. I got 80% of the way there then started to have to reach for FFI, unsafeCoerce, or build my own Purescript module to capture mousevents.
