IHP is already used in production for a number of commercial projects, but I'd also highly recommend the framework for anyone interested in just learning and hacking away with haskell. The IHP IDE is a great playground and you are automatically set up with a postgres db, ghc, hls, etc. So a lot of the configuration barrier is removed and you can just start writing Haskell and experimenting with some of the cool libraries on hackage.
Really happy we've finally got to the 1.0 status :) If you like to take a look at the code, check our GitHub at <a href="https://github.com/digitallyinduced/ihp" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/digitallyinduced/ihp</a>
Wow, just started watching video, this is really nice. The integrated environment, db and everything makes it super easy to get started.
I guess you made it so you just have no excuses to try this out.<p>Big thank you for developers.
It looks like Docker support is still a paid feature? That's disappointing. I had written a blog post outlining how important docker support was and explaining how little work it was to get working, and at the time the maintainers agreed it should be a free feature, but it seems they've changed their minds.
One of the nice features of IHP is that, thanks to Haskell’s strict type checking, it does not just eliminate bugs, it also speeds up development. E.g. if you want to change or build a new feature, you don’t need to write tests for it since the compiler basically does that for you. Since you don’t need to write tests, your work is perhaps half of what it would be normally – and neither do you have to know how to write good tests, which is an entire skill in itself.
I've been meaning to pick up either Haskell or OCaml for my next language. On the OCaml side, I see Cornell's free CS 3110 textbook recommended around here. Is there something similar on the Haskell side?
