We have a group of 5 Haskllers, (some quite experienced, some not so much) joining together to work on a new open source project. The overall goal is to create something that is a useful/valuable addition to the ecosystem while improving our Haskell skills.
We have just begun and are deciding what the project will be (some ideas below) and are looking for additional collaborators. All levels of contribution are welcome including suggestions on what the project should be.
Here are our initial thoughts so far:
- A parallel library to go’s bubbletea but written in Haskell. Maybe even a naive rewrite?
- A database library. Unfortunately database libraries are very common in Haskell
- Some kind of contribution to/iteration on dear-imgui
- A reference project of sorts in full-stack Haskell. Website/game etc.
- A declarative language for REST apis that generates encoding/decoding code in various programming languages. See servant-elm for example.
- A generic package manager. A lot of people in Haskell write their own programming languages. Maybe we could provide an easy way to set up a package manager/documentation for some arbitrary programming language.
Please post here if you would like to join or if you just want to contribute a project idea. We will be having a video call in the coming weeks to discuss.
