In the final part of the “Domain Modelling with Haskell” series we factor out recursion from the Project data type, and use Fixplate to traverse the tree and accumulate reports. Although a highly flexible and powerful technique, it should not be employed prematurely due to its more advanced nature. Show Notes Welcome to Haskell at …

This is the third episode in the short series on Domain Modelling with Haskell. Now our hypothetical customer requires reporting not only at the level of individual projects, but also on the project group level. Our previous solution using Traversable and Foldable won’t help us much, so we use explicit recursion and the WriterT monad …

This is the second episode in the short series on Domain Modelling with Haskell. In this episode, we will generalize our domain model from the last episode, providing more fine-grained reporting, with less code. Show Notes In the last episode we modelled a basic project management system using Haskell data structures. We had the ability …

Haskell is an amazing language for domain modelling, with its expressive data types and highly reusable abstractions. In this episode we will design the core of a simple project management system, laying the groundwork for later episodes in this small series. Show Notes We will model a basic project management system. This episode lays the …
Test suites with many example-based tests can contain a lot of repetition. While it’s possible to factor out much of the repetition using regular Haskell code, it can be useful to construct test cases from external files, which can be generated from other sources, or constructed by people not doing Haskell programming. In this video …
