What framework or language would you use to write the same codebase with from scratch?

Having built couple of toy programs with OCaml, I'd be really interested in building a project in a functional language.
There are also a lot of "Flask-like" projects in Rust. Rocket for the framework, Tera for the templates, and Diesel for the ORM.
The barrier right now is mainly upstream. Rocket is a nightly-only Rust crate right now, and a lot of the UX features these kinds of frameworks need / want are still missing from the compiler (like async / await).
Another option would be D, although the lack of "batteries" (libraries and tools) is rather concerning.
