"Haskell from N00b to Real World Programmer"
Hello, As hinted in the previous HCAR, this year we will organize an workshop entitled like the subject of this mail[1]. It will be organized by ROSEdu (Romanian Open Source Education) [2] and the newly founded Haskell-Romania group (no link yet, working on that). It is one workshop in a series of summer workshops organized by ROSEdu (go one level up in the wiki, some of them are in Romanian and I don't want to blindly give links to Romanian pages). The entire schedule is given on the wiki page at [1] and detailed below: Day 1 (8th of July) Introduction. History and Syntax. -- basic introduction to the language. Including @lambdabot usage as an example Programming with Static Typing as An Ally. -- designing with types and using GHCI for rapid prototyping and testing type of expressions. Possible to include @djinn Programming with State and Style. -- gentle introduction to monads in the style of "You could have invented monads" [3] Day 2 (9th of July) Packaging and Distributing Code. -- hackage, cabal, cabal-dev and, maybe, stackage The Awesome xmonad Window Manager -- we'll let them tweak configuration files in xmonad and use them. In this way, they get to use real world apps and change them to suit their needs. Maybe attract some developers. Compare and Contrast. Blow Your Mind with Haskell and Compare with Python. -- Starting with a comparison between some Python code and the equivalent Haskell one we get to cover topics in [4] Day 3 (11th of July) Lenses for Updating Details. -- you've guessed it, lenses Creating Graphical Interfaces. -- GTK2hs or lGTK. I'd like to test the second one Static Site Generation. -- Hakyll, config tweaking, generating first site, etc. Day 4 (12th of July) Beautiful Diagrams -- diagrams package Pipes and Conduits for Faster I/O -- pipes Creating Real-World Web Applications. -- Yesod (because that's what we know) Day 5 (13th of July) Hackathon Day If you have some suggestions, please make them. Lastly, for the hackathon day we have considered making some bots for I.GameBot[5] and an IRC bot with features that we'd like on #rosedu and #haskell-ro (grab, karma, resource location, statistics). If you'd have some other suggestions which could be implemented in a single day after the previous courses, please, do share them with us. Thanks and sorry for the length of the mail.
