Answer 1

Both complex static graphical layouts and interactivity are much more simple in Elm than in HTML/CSS/any JavaScript framework. With Elm, the accidental complexity lies in the types, but it is well worth learning about them - they help understand, debug and modify software better, and they should be already familiar to you if you come from a functional programming background. Note that you can also embed Elm in HTML/JS, so in theory, you can migrate gradually.
