>The catch in your approach is that it doesn't really offer an incentive for people to learn Haskell other than "it's really good, believe me". The best incentive I know of is to demonstrate that people are solving the problems that the potential Haskeller wants to solve, and that there are tools, resources, and even sample code available.
I have been saturated and have had to scale how I teach for the last 9-12 months, so marketing hasn't been a first-order concern.
There are "ooh" and "ahh" demos I could put up, but other people are doing that work better than I could. I'm just the funnel catching people already sold.
Teaching is hard and isn't done well. I like working on this problem and would like to focus on it for the time being.
Division of labor yo.

- coolsunglasses 12y agoFair enough! You should check out #haskell-beginners on Freenode if you decide to pick up some Haskell. Enjoy your day. :)
