  • bytestring

    An efficient compact, immutable byte string type (both strict and lazy) suitable for binary or 8-bit character data.

  • bytestring

  • attoparsec

    A fast Haskell library for parsing ByteStrings

  • attoparsec

  • post-rfc

    Blog post previews in need of peer review

  • State of the Haskell Ecosystem lists libraries for many of its domains.

  • ihp

    🔥 The fastest way to build type safe web apps. IHP is a new batteries-included web framework optimized for longterm productivity and programmer happiness

  • And if you want to land a Haskell job, I'd say becoming really proficient with any stack would be more important. E.g. IHP might not be around in five years but you can use it to make web/backend projects even for clients who don't care about Haskell, and if I was hiring a backend engineer I would happily hire someone proficient with IHP even though my actual Haskell stack would be entirely different.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
