Awesome-list-of-Haskell-mentors VS swarm

The second one is contributing to open source projects with mentoring or without.

You may be interested in this resource: https://github.com/willbasky/Awesome-list-of-Haskell-mentors

Come join us at https://github.com/swarm-game/swarm/ ! We are very friendly and we have a bunch of small tasks suitable for beginners (see https://github.com/swarm-game/swarm/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22C-Low+Hanging+Fruit%22) . No Slack or Discord but we do have an IRC channel and a Gather.town space (though it's not used very actively at the moment).

All the above listed projects are really great, worthy projects. But if you're looking for something a bit more frivolous, check out https://github.com/swarm-game/swarm/ .

Check out Swarm if you like functional programming.

This is exactly what we do in swarm: https://github.com/swarm-game/swarm/blob/main/src/Swarm/TUI/List.hs If others are interested, we would be happy to collaborate to split this out into a separate library somehow.

Games that may fit are Screeps and Swarm (these are the two I know of, but there could be others in the same subgenre). The gameplay loop consists of you writing code to command your units who then go out to gather resources which you use to make better units and improve your base. Of course these types of games require you to do actual programming.

It's also great as a reference for PL implementors : https://github.com/swarm-game/swarm/blob/main/src/Swarm/Language/Typecheck.hs

Always happy to welcome contributors to https://github.com/byorgey/swarm (see CONTRIBUTING.md and issues tagged "low-hanging fruit" ). The needed level of expertise varies a lot from module to module, but there's a good deal that should be accessible to someone with a year of Haskell experience.
