I would have loved to have had this when I learned SML by running through Okasaki's "Purely Functional Datastructures". The type system and compiler eventually beat me into submission, but an LSP would have probably eased me into it. I highly recommend that book by the way.

I had a similar experience with “ Modern Compiler Implementation in ML”… but I didn’t slog through it, I switched to ocaml and ported everything as I went. I’m sure an LSP would have been helpful.
