learn-you-a-haskell VS integrant

The LYAH is by far my favorite book for beginners, however, it lacks exercises for you to practice, but you can still move along typing and playing with the examples shown, and it’s free to read online. It’s outdated but most of the code may still be valid with little to no changes.

Learn You a Haskell For Great Good! is also a really good resource:

If you've never done functional, Learn You Some Erlang For Great Good was a very fun read, and I'll always love Learn You a Haskell for Great Good for showing me everything imperative languages kinda gloss over magically, as well as why I should never take a job working in Haskell!

you start that way, but don't do http://learnyouahaskell.com really?

Learn You a Haskell for Great Good!

I enjoyed http://learnyouahaskell.com/ which is available in print and digital. Fun and lighthearted while still teaching reasonable depth. YMMV.

Elm is a statically typed language inspired by Haskell. The natural step would be to use Elm on the frontend and Haskell on the backend. And that's what I tried to do. I read with some difficulty the Learn You a Haskell for Great Good! book (available for free here) and learned a lot of cool stuff. But creating a complete backend using Haskell proved to be more than I could chew. So I decided to look for alternatives...

Here y’go!

Have a look at Integrant from Clojure: https://github.com/weavejester/integrant

* Lifecycle management: Mount, Integrant or Component (https://github.com/tolitius/mount https://github.com/weavejester/integrant and https://github.com/stuartsierra/component)

Allesandra Sierra’s Component has lots of competitors now: first mount which has since fallen out of favor for integrant. There’s newer ones too, like clip and donut-power.

This was the missing piece for me at least. As mentioned in another reply the Imperative shell, functional core helped me a lot with that. I discovered it through Clean Architecture and by using some micro-frameworks in Clojure that really emphasised the use of the pattern.

After reviewing the options, I settled on weavejester/integrant because it's small - only one dependency and two source files in total.

Today I released a new version of Reveal Pro — dev.vlaaad/reveal-pro {:mvn/version "1.3.308"} — that adds sticker integration for system libraries such as mount, component and integrant!

Component is nice but I found the records and protocols annoying to work with. Have you checked out Integrant? That ones been my preferred component-style library.

I don't really like 'Component'. I seems very clunky and we had a lot of issues with it and a lot incidental complexity in our codebase (now converted to Java). It was the first real system that did these sort of things but if I start a project now, I much rather use Integrant or Clip.

I haven't used Clip a lot yet but my next project is defiantly going to be with Clip.
