As smugly as possible and with a huge grin: Purescript
Some I can think of off the top:
- PostgREST
- hoodle
- Microsoft Bond
- git-annex
- darcs
- harry8 10y agoSo you don't use purescript for writing code according to your definition? Ok. Anyway, that aside the haskell pushers out there really need to address why there's so very little in the way of application written in haskell. The article notes that haskell is used very successfully for compilers. The number of successes elsewhere is very, very much smaller. Why? It's important not to just yell "rah rah" but actually analyse it as a problem and maybe, just maybe, you know, solve it.
- nbouscal 10y agoHaskell is used successfully in industry, e.g. at Standard Chartered where they have >1MM lines of Haskell in production. Take a look: https://wiki.haskell.org/Haskell_in_industry https://wiki.haskell.org/Haskell_in_industry
- shae 10y agoAnecdotally, I see much commercial and personal use of Haskell. Have you looked at the other comments in this thread? Alternatively, why do you think there aren't small fun toys and/or commercial usage of Haskell?
