Post Body

I'm really into functional programming and Haskell so I'm curious - do you use Haskell in production? For what use-cases?

Are you happy with that decision? What were your biggest drawbacks after choosing Haskell?

Are there better functional programming alternatives? For example, Scala or F#?

I hope that this would get traction because I'm sick of OOP... but being an Android Developer... best I can do is Kotlin ArrowKt while still being surrounded by an OOP Android SDK.

I use it mostly for data transformation, for which it's extremely well suited.

As for whether it's the "best".. Haskell has an anemic library selection compared to most platforms, meaning you end up having to DIY certain modules on occasion. I think the ease of refactoring and increased safety usually outweighs this issue, but I'm sure it's more trouble than it's worth in some contexts.
