response (1387 chars)
Depends on what you're trying to do — they're quite different tools despite both being functional languages with strong type systems.
## PureScript
**Best for: production web frontends (and some backend)**
- Haskell-like language compiling to JavaScript
- Strict evaluation, row polymorphism, typeclasses
- Mature ecosystem for web dev (Halogen, react-basic)
- Practical focus: you're shipping apps
## Lean (Lean 4)
**Best for: theorem proving + increasingly general programming**
- Dependent types — proofs are first-class
- Mathlib: huge formalized math library
- Compiles to C, surprisingly fast
- Metaprogramming is excellent (Lean is written in Lean)
- General-purpose programming is viable but ecosystem is young (few web/IO libraries)
## Quick decision guide
| You want... | Pick |
|---|---|
| Build a web app | PureScript |
| Formalize math / verify proofs | Lean |
| Verified software / dependent types | Lean |
| Haskell-but-JS with jobs-adjacent skills | PureScript |
| Learn cutting-edge type theory | Lean |
| Strong tooling momentum in 2025 | Lean (it's growing fast) |
**My take:** if it's curiosity-driven learning, Lean 4 is the more intellectually exciting choice right now — dependent types change how you think, and the community is booming. If you need to ship something to users, PureScript.

Depends on what you're trying to do — they're quite different despite both being functional languages with dependent-ish type systems:
## Lean (4)
- **Primary purpose:** Theorem proving + general-purpose programming
- **Type system:** Full dependent types (Calculus of Inductive Constructions)
- **Killer feature:** Mathlib — the largest formalized math library in existence
- **Compiles to:** Native code via C
- **Best for:** Formal verification, mathematics, learning dependent types, writing programs with proofs of correctness
## PureScript
- **Primary purpose:** Frontend/web development
- **Type system:** Haskell-like (HM + type classes, row polymorphism, no dependent types)
- **Killer feature:** Clean JavaScript output, great FFI to the JS ecosystem
- **Compiles to:** JavaScript (also Erlang, Go via alternate backends)
- **Best for:** Type-safe web apps, replacing TypeScript with something more principled
## Quick decision guide

| Proving theorems / formal math | **Lean** |
| Building web frontends | **PureScript** |
| Dependent types | **Lean** |

| Industry job relevance | Honestly neither — both niche, but PureScript edges closer to real jobs |
| Cutting-edge PL research vibes | **Lean** |
If you're choosing one to *learn* for growth as a programmer: Lean will stretch your brain more (dependent types, proofs-as-programs). PureScript will be more immediately practical if you do web work.

response (1222 chars)
Depends entirely on what you're trying to do — they're quite different tools despite both being pure functional languages with strong type systems.
**PureScript** if you want:
- Practical web development (compiles to JavaScript)
- A Haskell-like language for frontend/backend apps
- Row polymorphism and a nice records system
- To ship products
**Lean** (especially Lean 4) if you want:
- Theorem proving and formal verification
- Dependent types in their full glory
- To formalize mathematics (huge momentum here — see mathlib)
- A surprisingly fast general-purpose language too (Lean 4 is genuinely usable for programming, with great metaprogramming)
**Rough heuristic:**
- Building a web app? → PureScript
- Proving theorems or verifying software? → Lean
- Want maximum type-level power and don't mind a smaller ecosystem for "normal" programming? → Lean 4 is increasingly viable
- Want the most interesting intellectual experience? → Lean, honestly
If you tell me your goal (learning, a project, career skills?), I can give a sharper answer. For pure fun and learning, I'd lean (sorry) toward Lean — working through the *Natural Number Game* or *Theorem Proving in Lean 4* is a genuinely mind-expanding experience.

Depends entirely on what you're trying to do — they're quite different tools despite both being functional languages with dependent-ish type systems:
**Lean (especially Lean 4)**
- Primary purpose: theorem proving and formal mathematics, though Lean 4 is also a legitimately capable general-purpose language
- Best if: you're interested in formal verification, proving properties of programs, mathematics (mathlib is huge), or you enjoy dependent types at full power
- Tooling/ecosystem for *practical software* is still young
**PureScript**
- Primary purpose: writing real applications, mainly targeting JavaScript (frontend/Node)
- Essentially "Haskell for the web" — strict evaluation, row polymorphism, compiles to readable JS
- Best if: you want to ship web apps with a strong Haskell-style type system

response (1388 chars)
Depends entirely on what you're trying to do — they're surprisingly different tools despite both being dependently-flavored/strongly-typed FP languages.
**Pick Lean (Lean 4) if:**
- You want theorem proving / formalized mathematics — it's the dominant tool there right now (Mathlib is massive and active).
- You're interested in dependent types as a core feature, not an add-on.
- You like the idea of a language that's both a proof assistant *and* a genuinely fast general-purpose language (Lean 4 compiles to C).
- You want strong metaprogramming — Lean is largely written in Lean.
**Pick PureScript if:**
- Your target is the browser / Node — it compiles to readable JavaScript.
- You want "Haskell for the web" with row polymorphism and a pragmatic JS FFI.
- You're shipping web apps, not proving theorems.
**Honest caveats:**
- Lean's ecosystem outside math/verification is thin. Writing a web server in Lean is possible but you're a pioneer.
- PureScript's community has shrunk somewhat; many web-FP folks moved to TypeScript+fp-ts/Effect, Elm, or just Haskell with GHC's JS backend.
**My take:** if this is for learning/intellectual growth, Lean — it'll stretch your brain more and the momentum behind it is real. If it's for shipping frontend code at work, PureScript works, but evaluate whether TypeScript + Effect gets you 80% there with less friction.

# PureScript vs. Lean
Both are functional languages with strong type systems, but they target very different goals. Here's a comparison:
## PureScript
**Purpose:** Pure functional programming for the web (compiles to JavaScript)
```purescript
module Main where
import Prelude
import Effect (Effect)
import Effect.Console (log)
greet :: String -> String
greet name = "Hello, " <> name <> "!"
main :: Effect Unit
main = log (greet "World")
```
**Key features:**
- Haskell-like syntax and semantics
- Strict evaluation (unlike Haskell's laziness)
- Row polymorphism (extensible records)
- Type classes, higher-kinded types
- Effects tracked via `Effect` monad
- Great JS/Node interop via FFI
**Use cases:** Frontend apps (Halogen, react-basic), Node backends
## Lean (Lean 4)
**Purpose:** Theorem proving *and* general-purpose programming
```lean
def greet (name : String) : String :=
s!"Hello, {name}!"
-- Proofs are first-class
theorem add_comm' (a b : Nat) : a + b = b + a := by
omega
def main : IO Unit :=
IO.println (greet "World")
```
**Key features:**
- Dependent types (types can depend on values)
- Interactive theorem proving with tactics
- Mathlib: massive formalized math library
- Compiles to native code via C
- Powerful metaprogramming (Lean is written in Lean)
**Use cases:** Formal verification, mathematics, verified software
## Quick Comparison
| | PureScript | Lean 4 |

| Type system | HM + extensions | Dependent types (CIC) |
| Target | JavaScript | Native (via C) |
| Proofs | No | Yes, core feature |

| Ecosystem | Web-focused | Math/verification-focused |
| Records | Row polymorphism | Structures |

# Lean vs. PureScript
Both are statically-typed functional languages, but they serve very different purposes.
## Lean
- **Purpose**: Theorem prover / proof assistant *and* general-purpose programming language (Lean 4)
- **Type system**: Dependent types (Calculus of Inductive Constructions) — types can depend on values
- **Killer feature**: Write programs and *prove* properties about them; used for formalizing mathematics (mathlib)
- **Compilation**: Compiles to C, quite fast
- **Metaprogramming**: Extremely powerful — Lean is largely written in Lean; syntax is extensible
```lean
def fib : Nat → Nat
| 0 => 0
| 1 => 1
| n + 2 => fib n + fib (n + 1)
theorem fib_pos (n : Nat) (h : n > 0) : fib n > 0 := by
match n with
| 1 => simp [fib]
| n + 2 => simp [fib]; omega
```
## PureScript
- **Purpose**: Practical web/frontend programming
- **Type system**: Haskell-like — HKTs, type classes, row polymorphism (great for records), no dependent types
- **Compilation**: Compiles to readable JavaScript (also Erlang, Go backends)
- **Evaluation**: Strict (unlike Haskell)
- **Ecosystem**: Halogen (UI), easy JS FFI
```purescript
fib :: Int -> Int
fib 0 = 0
fib 1 = 1
fib n = fib (n - 1) + fib (n - 2)
main :: Effect Unit
main = log $ show (fib 10)

I can address both languages and provide a comparison between them.
response (1310 chars)
Both are functional programming languages, but with quite different goals:
## Lean
- **Primary purpose**: Theorem proving + general-purpose programming (Lean 4 especially)
- Dependently typed — types can depend on values, enabling formal proofs
- Used for formalizing mathematics (e.g., **Mathlib**, a huge math library)
- Lean 4 is also a practical language: compiles to C, good performance, the compiler is self-hosted
- Steep learning curve if you're doing proofs, but rewarding
## PureScript
- **Primary purpose**: Practical functional programming for the web (compiles to JavaScript)
- Strongly Haskell-inspired: typeclasses, higher-kinded types, but with **strict evaluation** and **row polymorphism** (great for records)
- No runtime — output is plain readable JS
- Good for frontend apps (Halogen, react-basic) or Node backends
## Quick comparison
| | Lean 4 | PureScript |
|---|---|---|
| Type system | Dependent types | Haskell-like + rows |
| Target | Native (via C) | JavaScript |
| Killer feature | Proofs / metaprogramming | Typed FP on the web |
| Ecosystem | Math-heavy, growing | Web-focused, smaller |
**Which to pick?**
- Want to prove things or explore dependent types → **Lean**
- Want Haskell-style FP in the browser → **PureScript**
What's your use case? I can go deeper on either.

These two words don't have an obvious connection, so I want to make sure I understand what you're asking! Here are a few possibilities:
**1. If you're comparing them as words** (e.g., for a game like Scrabble or word golf):
- **python**: 6 letters, 2 syllables
- **rehabilitate**: 12 letters, 5 syllables
- Scrabble points: python = 14, rehabilitate = 17
**2. If you mean Python (programming language) vs. some software/tool called "Rehabilitate"** — I'm not aware of a well-known tool by that name. Could you clarify?
**3. If you're asking whether to learn Python or pursue rehabilitation (career/health context)** — those serve very different goals, so I'd need more context.

# PureScript vs Lean
These languages serve quite different purposes, though both have strong type systems rooted in functional programming.
## PureScript
**Purpose:** Practical web development with strong types
- **Target:** Compiles to JavaScript (also Erlang, C++ via backends)
- **Type system:** Haskell-like — HKTs, type classes, row polymorphism
- **Strictness:** Eager evaluation (unlike Haskell)
- **Ecosystem:** Web-focused (Halogen, react-basic)
- **Use case:** Frontend/backend apps where you want Haskell-style purity in JS environments
```purescript
greet :: String -> String
greet name = "Hello, " <> name
```
## Lean (Lean 4)
**Purpose:** Theorem proving *and* general-purpose programming
- **Target:** Compiles to C (native binaries)
- **Type system:** Dependent types — types can depend on values
- **Proofs:** Programs and mathematical proofs are unified (Curry-Howard)
- **Ecosystem:** Mathlib (massive math library), growing systems programming use
- **Use case:** Formal verification, mathematics, software where correctness proofs matter
```lean
theorem add_comm (a b : Nat) : a + b = b + a := by
omega
```
## Key Differences
| Aspect | PureScript | Lean 4 |
|--------|-----------|--------|
| Dependent types | ❌ | ✅ |
| Proving theorems | ❌ | ✅ Core feature |
| Web frontend | ✅ Primary use | ❌ Not practical |
| Learning curve | Moderate (easier if you know Haskell) | Steep |
| Performance | JS runtime speed | Fast native code |
| Maturity for apps | Mature for web | Young but growing |
## Which to choose?
- **Building a web app?** → PureScript
- **Verifying correctness, formalizing math, or curious about dependent types?** → Lean
- **Want both worlds?** Lean 4 is increasingly viable as a general language, but its libraries for everyday tasks lag far behind
What's your use case? That'd help narrow down a recommendation.

# Lean vs PureScript
These languages serve quite different purposes, though both are functional with strong type systems.
## Lean
**Primary purpose:** Theorem proving + general-purpose programming
- **Dependent types** — types can depend on values, enabling proofs as programs
- Used for **formalizing mathematics** (e.g., Mathlib, a massive math library)
- Lean 4 is also a practical programming language (Lean itself is written in Lean)
- Compiles to efficient native code via C
- Strong in academia, formal verification, and increasingly in industry (AWS, AI math research)
## PureScript
**Primary purpose:** Frontend web development
- **Haskell-like** language that compiles to JavaScript
- Strict evaluation (unlike Haskell's laziness)
- Row polymorphism, typeclasses, no dependent types
- Ecosystem centered on web apps (Halogen, react-basic)
- Practical alternative to TypeScript/Elm when you want more powerful types
## Quick comparison

- **Rehabilitate**: to restore someone/something to health, good condition, or good standing
**2. If you're asking about careers** (e.g., learning Python programming vs. becoming a rehabilitation specialist/therapist):
- **Python/programming**: tech industry, remote-friendly, high demand, faster entry via self-teaching or bootcamps
- **Rehabilitation fields** (physical therapy, occupational therapy, etc.): healthcare, hands-on, requires formal degrees/licensing, very people-focused

- **Use cases:** Frontend apps, Node.js backends
- **Strengths:**

- Row types make working with records/JS objects ergonomic
- Familiar to Haskell developers
- Strict evaluation (unlike Haskell)
- **Ecosystem:** Halogen, react-basic, mature web tooling
## Lean (Lean 4)

- **Use cases:** Formalizing mathematics, verified software, increasingly general programming
- **Strengths:**
- Prove properties about your code (or pure math — see Mathlib)
- Compiles to efficient native code via C
- Powerful metaprogramming (Lean is largely written in Lean)
- Growing fast, backed by AWS/Lean FRO
- **Ecosystem:** Mathlib (huge math library), but sparse for "normal" app dev

# PureScript → Lean: A Quick Translation Guide
Here's how common PureScript concepts map to Lean 4:
## Basic Syntax
| PureScript | Lean 4 |
|---|---|
| `f :: Int -> Int` | `f : Int → Int` |
| `f x = x + 1` | `def f (x : Int) : Int := x + 1` |
| `let y = 5 in ...` | `let y := 5; ...` |
| `\x -> x + 1` | `fun x => x + 1` or `(· + 1)` |
| `::` (type annotation) | `:` |
## Data Types
**PureScript:**
```purescript
data Maybe a = Nothing | Just a
data Tree a = Leaf | Node (Tree a) a (Tree a)
```
**Lean:**
```lean
inductive Maybe (α : Type) where
| nothing
| just (a : α)
inductive Tree (α : Type) where
| leaf
| node (l : Tree α) (v : α) (r : Tree α)
```
## Records
**PureScript:**
```purescript
type Person = { name :: String, age :: Int }
```
**Lean:**
```lean
structure Person where
name : String
age : Int
```
## Type Classes
**PureScript:**
```purescript
class Show a where
show :: a -> String
instance showBool :: Show Boolean where
show true = "true"
show false = "false"
```
**Lean:**
```lean
class Show (α : Type) where
show : α → String
instance : Show Bool where
show
| true => "true"
| false => "false"
```
## Pattern Matching
**PureScript:**
```purescript
length :: forall a. List a -> Int
length Nil = 0
length (Cons _ xs) = 1 + length xs
```
**Lean:**
```lean
def length : List α → Nat
| [] => 0
| _ :: xs => 1 + length xs
```
## Monads / do-notation
**PureScript:**
```purescript
main :: Effect Unit
main = do
log "Hello"
x <- readLine
log x
```
**Lean:**
```lean
def main : IO Unit := do
IO.println "Hello"
let x ← (← IO.getStdin).getLine
IO.println x
```
## Key Differences
- **Lean is dependently typed** — types can depend on values, far beyond PureScript's type system
- **Totality**: Lean requires functions to be total/terminating by default (use `partial def` to opt out)
- **Proofs**: Lean is also a theorem prover; `Prop` and tactics have no PureScript analog
- **Universes**: `Type`, `Type 1`, ... instead of a single kind `Type`
- **`forall a.`** → implicit binders `{α : Type}` (usually auto-generalized)
- **No row

| Function def | `def f (x : Nat) : Nat := x + 1` | `f :: Int -> Int`<br>`f x = x + 1` |
| Inductive type | `inductive Color \| red \| green` | `data Color = Red \| Green` |
| Structure/record | `structure P where x : Nat` | `type P = { x :: Int }` or `newtype` |
| Pattern match | `match xs with \| [] => ... \| x :: rest => ...` | `case xs of`<br>` Nil -> ...`<br>` Cons x rest -> ...` |
| Type class | `class Mul (α : Type)` | `class Mul a` |
| Instance | `instance : Mul Nat := ...` | `instance mulInt :: Mul Int where ...` |
| Lambda | `fun x => x + 1` | `\x -> x + 1` |
| Option | `Option α` (`some` / `none`) | `Maybe a` (`Just` / `Nothing`) |
| Do notation | `do let x ← act; ...` | `do x <- act; ...` |
| Universe/proofs | `Prop`, theorems, tactics | *(no equivalent — drop or encode differently)* |
Things to watch out for:
- **Dependent types and proofs don't translate** — PureScript has no `Prop`, tactics, or dependent functions. Proof terms usually just get erased.
- `Nat` → typically `Int` (losing non-negativity guarantees).
- Lean's strict evaluation matches PureScript (also strict), unlike Haskell.
- Partial functions in Lean (`partial def`) are just ordinary recursion in PureScript, but PureScript won't check termination.
Share your code and I'll do the translation!
The user's input is a bit unclear — they've written "python 或 rehabilitate" which mixes a programming language with an English word. I should ask for clarification in Chinese and offer to explain either Python as a programming language or the meaning of "rehabilitate" as a word.
# PureScript 与 Lean 简介
这是两门很有特色的函数式语言,用途不同:
## PureScript
**定位**:编译到 JavaScript 的强类型纯函数式语言,语法接近 Haskell。
**适合场景**:前端开发、Node.js 后端
```purescript
module Main where
import Prelude
import Effect (Effect)
import Effect.Console (log)
-- 类型类与高阶函数
greet :: String -> String
greet name = "Hello, " <> name <> "!"
main :: Effect Unit
main = log (greet "PureScript")
```
**特点**:
- 严格求值(与 Haskell 的惰性不同)
- 行多态(row polymorphism),记录类型很灵活
- Effect 系统管理副作用
- 主流框架:Halogen、React 绑定
## Lean (Lean 4)
**定位**:定理证明器 + 通用编程语言,依赖类型系统。
**适合场景**:数学形式化证明、需要正确性保证的程序
```lean
-- 既是程序也是证明
def add (a b : Nat) : Nat := a + b
theorem add_comm' (a b : Nat) : a + b = b + a := by
omega
-- 依赖类型:长度编码在类型里
def head {α : Type} (xs : List α) (h : xs ≠ []) : α :=
match xs with
| x :: _ => x
```
**特点**:
- 依赖类型,类型可依赖于值
- Mathlib:庞大的数学库
- 命题即类型(Curry-Howard 对应)
- Lean 4 本身用 Lean 编写,性能不错
## 如何选择?
| 需求 | 推荐 |
|------|------|
| 写类型安全的前端应用 | PureScript |
| 数学证明、形式化验证 | Lean |
| 学习依赖类型理论 | Lean |
| Haskell 风格 + JS 生态 | PureScript |

I need to compare Lean and PureScript briefly. Lean is a theorem prover and functional programming language focused on formal verification and mathematical proofs, while PureScript is a statically-typed functional language that compiles to JavaScript for web development. The key difference is that Lean emphasizes correctness through formal verification, whereas PureScript prioritizes practical functional programming with strong type safety for building applications.

Could you clarify what you're after? A few likely interpretations:

|---|---|---|
| Primary use | Web front-end / functional programming | Theorem proving + general programming (Lean 4) |

| Type system | Haskell-like (HKTs, type classes, row polymorphism) | Dependent types (full CIC) |
| Killer feature | Sane FP for the browser | Proofs as programs, `mathlib` |
**Pick PureScript** if you're building web apps and want Haskell-style FP.
**Pick Lean** if you want dependent types, formal verification, or math formalization.
## 2. The `||` operator in each
**PureScript:**
```purescript
x || y -- Boolean or, from Data.HeytingAlgebra
true || false -- true
```
**Lean 4:**
```lean
x || y -- Bool or (strict on x, lazy on y)
x ∨ y -- Prop-level disjunction (Or)
```
Note Lean distinguishes `Bool` (`||`) from `Prop` (`∨`) — a key difference from PureScript where `Boolean` is the only game in town.

thinking (1156 chars)
Lean is a dependently-typed theorem prover and programming language where types can depend on values, making it powerful for formal verification and mathematics through its extensive mathlib library. It compiles to C efficiently and lets you prove code correctness directly. I'm looking at a simple recursive function that defines natural number addition by pattern matching on the second argument.
PureScript is a Haskell-inspired language designed for web development with strong typing, higher-kinded types, and row polymorphism for flexible record handling, but it lacks dependent types. It compiles to readable JavaScript and excels at functional programming for both frontend and backend web applications.
For combining web frameworks with formal verification and pure functional programming, the landscape is tricky — Lean 4 has some HTTP libraries but isn't mature for web yet, so I'm considering alternatives like Idris 2, Agda, F* with Low*, Coq with code extraction, or even Haskell with LiquidHaskell for refinement types, though none give you the full formal verification story that Lean does while also being practical for web development.

- Viable today for: a verified core + thin HTTP layer

# Lean vs PureScript
Two functional languages with very different goals:
## Lean
- **Purpose**: Theorem prover + general-purpose programming language (Lean 4)
- **Type system**: Full dependent types (Calculus of Inductive Constructions)
- **Compiles to**: Native code via C
- **Killer feature**: Write proofs and programs in the same language; `mathlib` is one of the largest formalized math libraries
- **Evaluation**: Strict
- **Metaprogramming**: Extremely powerful — the language is largely self-hosted via macros/elaborators
```lean
def map : (α → β) → List α → List β
| _, [] => []
| f, x :: xs => f x :: map f xs
theorem map_length (f : α → β) (xs : List α) :
(map f xs).length = xs.length := by
induction xs <;> simp [map, *]
```
## PureScript
- **Purpose**: Practical Haskell-like language for the web
- **Type system**: Haskell-style (HM + type classes, row polymorphism, no dependent types)
- **Compiles to**: JavaScript (readable output, easy JS FFI)
- **Killer feature**: Row types for records/effects; great frontend story (Halogen)
- **Evaluation**: Strict (unlike Haskell)
```purescript
map :: forall a b. (a -> b) -> List a -> List b
map _ Nil = Nil
map f (Cons x xs) = Cons (f x) (map f xs)
```
## Quick comparison

**Choose Lean** if you want formal verification or dependently-typed programming.
**Choose PureScript** if you want type-safe Haskell-flavored frontend/Node code.

# `<|>` in PureScript vs Lean
The `<|>` operator exists in both languages and means roughly the same thing: **"try the left; if it fails, use the right"** (the Alternative/orelse pattern).
## PureScript
From the `Alternative` / `Alt` type class hierarchy (`Control.Alt`):
```purescript
class Alt f where
alt :: forall a. f a -> f a -> f a
infixl 3 alt as <|>
```
Examples:
```purescript
Nothing <|> Just 5 -- Just 5
Just 1 <|> Just 2 -- Just 1
[1, 2] <|> [3, 4] -- [1, 2, 3, 4]
-- Parsing (very common use)
parseInt <|> parseFloat <|> parseString
```
Laws: associativity, and distributivity over `<$>`.
## Lean 4
From the `Alternative` class (built on `OrElse`-like semantics):
```lean
class Alternative (f : Type u → Type v) extends Applicative f where
failure : f α
orElse : f α → (Unit → f α) → f α
-- a <|> b is notation for orElse a (fun _ => b)
```
Note the right side is a **thunk** (`Unit → f α`), so `<|>` is lazy in its second argument by construction.
Examples:
```lean
none <|> some 5 -- some 5
(some 1 : Option Nat) <|> some 2 -- some 1
-- In tactic mode there's also the tactic combinator:
example : 1 + 1 = 2 := by
rfl <|> simp -- try rfl, fall back to simp
```
## Key differences
| | PureScript | Lean 4 |
|---|---|---|
| Class | `Alt` (`Alternative` adds `empty` via `Plus`/`Applicative`) | `Alternative` (includes `failure`) |
| Laziness | Strict by default (language is strict; instances handle it) | Second argument explicitly thunked |
| List instance | `<|>` = concatenation | `Option`, parsers, etc.; also a `<|>` **tactic** combinator |
| Common use | Parsers, `Maybe` fallback, validation | Parsers, `Option`, tactic backtracking, `macro_rules` alternatives |

# Lean vs PureScript
Both are pure functional languages with powerful type systems, but they target very different goals.
## Quick Comparison
| | **Lean 4** | **PureScript** |
|---|---|---|
| **Primary purpose** | Theorem proving + general programming | Web front-end programming |
| **Compiles to** | C (native) | JavaScript (also other backends) |
| **Type system** | Dependent types (full CIC) | Haskell-like (HM + type classes, row types) |
| **Proofs** | First-class, tactic framework | Not a proof assistant |
| **Evaluation** | Strict | Strict |
| **Killer feature** | Mathlib, verified software, metaprogramming | Row polymorphism, easy JS FFI |
| **Ecosystem** | Math/verification focused | Web (Halogen, react-basic) |
## The `<|>` connection 🙂
Both actually have this operator!
**PureScript** — `Alternative` type class:
```purescript
parseA <|> parseB -- try A, fall back to B
```
**Lean 4** — `Alternative`/`OrElse` classes:
```lean
def x : Option Nat := none <|> some 5 -- some 5
```
Also used heavily in Lean tactics: `first | tac1 | tac2` or `tac1 <;> tac2`.
## When to choose which
- **Lean**: formal verification, mathematics, dependently-typed programming, writing fast native code with proofs
- **PureScript**: type-safe front-end apps, replacing TypeScript, when you want "Haskell for the browser"
