    Re: effects libraries, it's probably worth starting with e.g. https://www.fpcomplete.com/blog/2017/06/readert-design-pattern/ https://www.parsonsmatt.org/2018/03/22/three_layer_haskell_cake.html https://github.com/lexi-lambda/mtl-style-example if you're just getting familiar with the ecosystem. I'll add, anything written by the the people I linked to in this comment is probably worth reading as well.

    Personally, it felt to me like, once I really understood monad transformers (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/transformers) and mtl (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/mtl), the reasons they both exist and how they are distinct, how you use them generally and what common patterns are around structuring your app (see e.g. https://github.com/lexi-lambda/mtl-style-example and the 3-layer-cake link someone else provided here for two), a lot of stuff in the ecosystem suddenly became comprehensible and useful to me, in a practical, "real world" way. In fact I'd go so far as to assert that getting comfortable with mtl in particular is the biggest single step you can take to being able to build arbitrarily useful real-world apps that are no longer toys.
