Re: [Haskell-cafe] Paid work available in functional web programming

It'd also be interesting to know what you missed in Haskell web development so that you needed to build a new language inspired from it. 2011/7/13 Christopher Done

I write to mention briefly that I'm looking for people interested in writing Ur/Web programs for pay. Ur/Web is a DSL for building modern web applications, and I believe it is truly a secret weapon for that domain, and one that should appeal to many Haskell fans. I have one customer now for whom I'm leading a project to develop a particular web application, and I'd like to have more. The current project would benefit from more

help, and I would also like to develop a network of people interested in future projects.

More information on Ur/Web can be found here: http://www.impredicative.com/ur/

I would like to see a real application in Ur/Web. There are many simple examples. I don't and wouldn't want to develop like that, writing raw HTML and SQL seems going backwards despite the incredible advances in consistency and correctness that Ur/Web offers. I also find it hard to understand the type system in a non-superficial level because the related paper was very hard to grok. I tried to get it running a while ago and could not get it to compile. I would also like to see how it handles non-web stuff as inevitably IME web applications involve more than merely reading and writing to a database.

I like the idea, please keep us posted about it.
