Alright "actually uses FP" twitter. I'm trying to setup a small webapp on an old 512MB RAM Raspberry Pi. Has anyone used Rust/Racket/Scheme/Haskell/OCaml/PureScript/Idris etc. for something like this? If so, did it work well?

I run a pastebin service (where you upload via curl) I wrote in Rust on a virtual server with the same amount of RAM. It’s essentially maintenace-free, and runs beautifully. Has support for syntax-highlighting too! Would definitely work well on a rasp pi.

It is, yeah. Rocket is very pleasant to use, and I’m pretty sure (though haven’t tested personally) that it works with an ARM Linux target (certainly Rust in general does)
