Haskell has been around for more than a decade and had huge uptake by language nerds, but the only significant OSS written in it is Pandoc. In contrast, Rust already has Servo and a number of CLI tools, ripgrep being the most prominent.
- leshow 7y agoI'm not sure what you consider 'significant', but to my mind, there are many great haskell open source projects: xmonad, shellcheck, stack, haxl, to name a few. Not to mention how many languages are written in it: Elm, Purescript, Idris, GHC itself.
- earthboundkid 7y agoI almost listed xmonad. I haven’t heard of the other ones. Doesn’t change my point.
- jimenezrick 7y agoLeaving popularity contests aside, i worked in a company using Haskell and i did used a lot these techniques, if that counts \o/ i guess today it only matter how many stars you repo has in github...
