Yeah. I think there are a lot of us out there. I won't rant (much)
here, because I hope to get some help from time to time. Alienating
people is not a good way to get help.<br>
<br>
But:<br>
<br>
There are many things I like about the language, but I have always
been perplexed by the haskell ecosystem in a couple of ways. However
good and/or interesting a language might be, it is not possible to
do meat and potatoes development unless there is a good supply of
packages/libraries.<br>
<br>
My first problem was that I often just could not get stuff to
install. The second problem was documentation. I hope it has
improved a bit. I was always flabbergasted at the (apparent) belief
that a few lines of API documentation coughed out by haddock are
enough. But that's all there was in a lot of cases. That, and "refer
to xxxx research paper" and "figure it out from the types". Hah. Any
math paper that consisted of just the equations sorted in
alphabetical order would not be well received, I think.<br>
<br>
I really admired that fact that Michael Snoyman wrote a book about
Yesod. For all I know he may not have kept the book up, but at least
he realized that people needed an explanation of how to use his
software.<br>
<br>
Well, back to work. I am going to give haskell another try for sure.
It's just too tempting to give up on. If it doesn't work, the next
stop will be sml or ocaml.<br>
<br>
Best,<br>

Confession: I abandoned Haskell two years ago because of
frustration with cabal and hackage. I decided to get back
to the language today, and to start with Haskell School of
Expression. I immediately run into the problem that the
first thing I try to install with cabal does not work.<br>

<div>It is the same reason I have stopped using it. It's a
real shame. Those with better education and understanding
than mine should be concerned that the uptake of the
language is stunted by its package manager.</div>

<div>I love Haskell. I have taught myself (the beginnings at
least) of group theory just to better comprehend the
mindset of monads. For that alone I am glad I learned
Haskell as it has rekindled my interest in maths!</div>
