Practical Haskell

What Hacker News says

   I've been been learning haskell by building a standard monolithic web application: Postgres DB, some static content, REST API and firebase authentication. It's taking longer than it would with a familiar language but so far I'm really enjoying the experience. I also took a small deviation a couple of weekends ago to build a simple OSM router and was pleased with the ease of development and performance.

   I'd recommend the book Practical Haskell by Alejandro Serrano Mena to get a firm introduction to the language and ecosystem of web applications. After that take at look at the libraries developed by FP complete.

   Haskell. A couple very solid books for Haskell came out in 2019 -- Get Programming with Haskell by Will Kurt, and Practical Haskell by Alejandro Serrano Mena -- and I was lucky enough to find a Functional Programming Meetup group in my area with some guys who write Haskell code every day.

   Currently falling, albeit very slowly, down the rabbit hole of FP -> category theory -> HoTT.
