Re: Proposal: newtype for applicatives of monoids

There is also http://hackage.haskell.org/package/free-4.12.1/docs/Control-Applicative-Free... http://hackage.haskell.org/package/free-4.12.1/docs/Control-Applicative-Free..., which is totally different thing, yet related to Applicative. reducers Ap has getApp field name, which is probably copy&paste mistake: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/reducers-3.10.3.2/docs/Data-Semigroup-App... http://hackage.haskell.org/package/reducers-3.10.3.2/docs/Data-Semigroup-App... In that light I’d prefer - Appl with getAppl, - Ap unchanged in free package - App left free

Ap seems a good name, and it's already used for that, so I'd support that bike shed color.

To offer a couple more colors for the bikeshed:

In my old monoids package, this exists as App:

In the newer reducers package, it has been shortened to Ap:
