  • haskell

    Exercism exercises in Haskell. (by exercism)

  • codeworld

    Educational computer programming environment using Haskell

  • Code World[1] is a great project that addresses a number of the problems from the article, with an eye towards using Haskell to teach children basic math and programming simultaneously. Code World directly addresses a number of the obstacles outlined in this article:

    1. Using an online editor with a rich built-in library removes any toolchain problems.

    2. A custom standard library simplifies pedagogically unnecessary details like Foldable

    3. The custom standard library also avoids currying (f(a, b) for functions rather than f a b)

    4. Custom error messages improve the feedback students get from the compiler

    I would highly recommend Code World to anybody looking to teach programming with Haskell. If you want to teach Haskell in a way that fits the existing ecosystem, it's also possible to run Code World without the custom standard library[2].
