- amano-kenji 3y agoI write softwares in janet and haskell. xmobar is written in haskell. I used xmobar with xmonad before. xmobar doesn't come with built-in status icons. Haskell is cumbersome in small scale, but it is precise for anything non-trivial. I write compiled programs that need to be precise in haskell. I write scripts in janet. Haskell isn't great for scripting due to its rigid but precise type system. For scripting, lisp languages feel better. At this point, I'd want to see a window manager that can be scripted in janet or scheme, but sway is okay.
