Really cool to see things still being built in Haskell! How do you find using it compared to some of the newer languages that have more modern tooling?

Did you implement your own OAUTH2 flow in haskell for this?

For me, Haskell is the language of 2026. Having an agent available if you get stuck with some weird type error is a blessing. It also helps with the tooling. Though the modern tooling with cabal is pretty good.

Does Haskell not have modern tooling? What would be considered modern in this context?

it does through cabal and stack but its not as streamlined, quick, and versatile as tooling for languages like Golang or Rust imo.

I'm a huge fan of Haskell and I'm really exploring it as my primary language now that AI has gotten so huge, not just because it makes it easier but also because I can really lock down what I allow code to do (through pure functions, type checking etc) and so I feel a lot more confident in AI generated code

		Could you be specific? Saying it's not as "streamlined, quick, and versatile" is vague — I'm not really getting anything from that. For context, I've been writing Haskell for quite a long time and I'm maintaining a few packages like Yesod.
