But, looking at the examples (picked the Wordle one since I know that game): https://github.com/HumbleUI/HumbleUI/blob/main/dev/examples/...
I find it extremely hard to read. Even small snippets, say line 56 to 74 which define this "color", "merge-colors" and "colors"... then the "field" one lines 76 to 117 is even harder.
is it more natural read for people familiar with writing functional programs? (am I permanently "broken" due to my familiarity with imperative programing?)
I wonder what the same Wordle example would look like in, say pure Flutter.
Also wonder how would that code look with external dependencies (say hitting a server to get the word of the day), and navigation (with maintaining state in between those pages)
Having a bit of Lisp experience (really not a lot), I find it very easy and elegant to read.

No, most people who say something like this are simply unwilling to invest an evening into a language they're not already familiar with.
