About
=====

Haskell is a modern functional programming language that allows rapid
development of robust and correct software. It is renowned for its
expressive type system, its unique approaches to concurrency and
parallelism, and its excellent refactoring capabilities. Haskell is both
the playing field of cutting-edge programming language research and a
reliable base for commercial software development.

The workshop series Haskell in Leipzig (HaL), now in its 12th year,
brings together Haskell developers, Haskell researchers, Haskell
enthusiasts, and Haskell beginners to listen to talks, take part in
tutorials, join in interesting conversations, and hack together. To
support the latter, HaL will include a one-day hackathon this year. The
workshop will have a focus on functional reactive programming (FRP) this
time, while continuing to be open to all aspects of Haskell. As in the
previous year, the workshop will be in English.
