Ask HN: What's Your Favorite Statically-Typed Language for Web Development
Most popular server-side languages seem to be dynamic, duck typed (Ruby, Python). Which are great for writing short code, but difficult to maintain.
I have lots of experience with Java, but everyone seems to hate that language.
So what statically-typed languages do people recommend for web development?

Check out Go (golang) - I feel it's going to be one of the strongest contenders for statically-typed web languages over the next few years.
I just started playing with Yesod in Haskell. Haven't used it for anything big yet, but I've been enjoying it.
