Genuine question: how do you all use Haskell IRL?

• monpad

  3 39 8.6 Haskell

  A fully-customisable web-based gamepad, designed to be used from smartphones.

Basically everything - it's a general purpose language after all! Creating Spotify playlists, polling my local tennis courts' website to see when spaces become available, home automation stuff like turning lights and plugs off under certain conditions. Today I wrote a 20-line-or-so program to track my friend's progress in a marathon. More substantially, over lockdown I built a tool for using phones as game controllers, and it's been my primary language at work for the past five years, across two very different jobs.

• pandoc

  420 32,312 9.8 Haskell

  Universal markup converter

I'm freelancing as a pandoc consultant, and I regularly get to fix bugs and to extend pandoc with additional functionality. My proudest work is the Lua subsystem, which is now used heavily, e.g. in Quarto.

• WorkOS

  workos.com sponsored

  The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  

• defect-process

  19 203 3.5 Haskell

  Defect Process (2d hack n' slash game) full source code

And the full code (w/o assets) is available too https://github.com/incoherentsoftware/defect-process

• xmonad

  76 3,236 7.9 Haskell

  The core of xmonad, a small but functional ICCCM-compliant tiling window manager

  

Daily, because xmonad

• cassava

  5 218 5.9 Haskell

  A CSV parsing and encoding library optimized for ease of use and high performance

  

I use it for everything: tracking personal finance and tax data (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/hledger), small scripts to gather online information that I want to track (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/cassava), sending alerts to my mobile device, etc...there's too much to list.

• Guava

  58 49,364 9.6 Java

  Google core libraries for Java

  

The guava library of Java has some of these data structures implemented: https://github.com/google/guava/wiki/ImmutableCollectionsExplained , but implementations of the above book in many languages can be found on github (say, this one for Haskell: https://github.com/aistrate/Okasaki )

• Okasaki

  1 35 10.0 Haskell

  Code from the book "Purely Functional Data Structures" by Chris Okasaki (both original and my own solutions to the exercises, in Haskell)
