Hello,

Interesting, thank you!

Can your library handle optional parameters? I guess, not right now but 
can be done, right?

At first glance I thought the :> operator had something to do with 
subtyping.How about defining the operators somehow like this:

type UserAPI = "users" </> "search" <?> QueryParam "q" Text <,> 
QueryParam "n" Word64 ::: Get [User]

In addition to more visual resemblance to http, you could probably 
enforce more type safety this way, too.
