What's the most practical approach to do native app dev in a functional programming language?

I think it should be F# via Xamarin? But well it’s not really that functional.

OCaml is fully native?

F# itself is functional, but it accesses a lot that is not, I’d still recommend it for .NET stuff, but that does not always work well on mobile either. ^.^

There are some functional haskell’y languages for the JVM that are getting popular, plus there is Scala that ‘can’ be functional but does not force it (I quite like it).
