Advice for people using Haskell in "production": Don't. Save not only yourself the disappoint, but every other stakeholder around you. Use something tried and tested.
- mbrodersen 7y agoLet me guess: you have never programmed in Haskell?
- jonny383 7y agoI have programmed in Haskell. I have programmed in assembly. I have programmed in just about every language in-between. Haskell is at best, a sophisticated toy suited to a small subdomain of problems. Have you ever tried to roll Haskell into production, when compared with something like C# or Java?
- g_delgado14 7y agoWhat was your experience like rolling Haskell into production?
- jonny383 7y agoCabal is probably the most unsuited packaging system for production software. It has no useful test integration nor freezing ability. Tried to change profiling? You're in for a bad time. What about deployment. Want git? Nope. You can't. Want to build artifacts? What is this, TypeScript?
