• Functors, Applicatives, and Monads

  > Yes, I really need a real word Haskell project simple enough to understand all the math concept There actually is a book with precisely that title, which provides what you're asking for: https://book.realworldhaskell.org/ > Like, I don't know when to implement the Monad type-class to my domain data types A concrete type (such as your Tweet type) can't be a Monad. Monad is implemented on generic types (think:... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Revisiting Haskell after 10 years

  The Real World Haskell book is also outdated, but can also be read online for free, and has many examples and exercises on writing practical and usable applications. Although I have not read the book to the fullest, I still recommend its monad transformers chapter, as it was the one that made it click for me. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Haskell book after Get Programming with Haskell?

  I also liked https://book.realworldhaskell.org/ since it layers up to (wait for it) real world problems e.g reading a barcode from an image. I'm old so the O'Reilly format has a warm place in my heart. More textbooky. Source: about 2 years ago

• What is the best resource to learn Haskell in 2023?

  So we have LYAH, also there is O'Reilly book, which is a bit old but still mostly good, many people start with this book. After any of those three you can probably decide for yourself what to use to continue the study. Source: over 2 years ago

• Building my XMonad config and...wow!

  I worked through Real World Haskell. http://book.realworldhaskell.org/. Source: over 2 years ago

• Where should I start ?

  When I learned Haskell I went through the book Real World Haskell (which is free online) and did some courseware like UPenn's CIS194. As well some leetcode kind of problems on excerism. Tons of content on youtube too. Theres a Haskell wiki too. Other language should be similar. Source: almost 3 years ago

• 11 Companies That Use Haskell in Production

  It's quite dated at this point (14 years since the first/only edition) but Real World Haskell was written to be such a book and a lot of it still mostly holds up despite being dated: http://book.realworldhaskell.org/. - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

• Any experience with teaching (or learning) Haskell as a first programming language?

  I started with Learn you a Haskell, continued with Real World Haskell and Write Yourself a Scheme, and after having finished those, I just started reading papers and blog posts. Academics of particular note are Eugenio Moggi, Phil Wadler, Conal Elliott, and Conor McBride. Also, Functional Pearls in general tend to be fairly accessible. Bloggers of particular note are Matt Parsons, FP Complete, Stephen Diehl, Sandy... Source: about 3 years ago

• I want to learn to code for Cardano, but I don’t know where to begin, nor what to aim for long term. Any advice?

  Once you've done that, give LYAH another shot, and also check out Real World Haskell (RWH). Source: over 3 years ago

• Monthly Hask Anything (November 2021)

  Real World Haskell is free online and has some nice concrete examples to accompany other books. Source: over 3 years ago

• At a crossroads

  I've read "Haskell Programming from first principles", and I found it brilliant. I've also skimmed through the other beginner books, i.e. "Programming in Haskell", "Real World Haskell" etc. Source: over 3 years ago

• Any help with resources on learning the basics of Functional Programming?

  Real world haskell - a bit outdated, but the concepts really helped especially in the haskell we would write at work. Talks about useful libraries like lenses, mtl/effects, as well as general software engineering with haskell. Source: almost 4 years ago
