Haskell


Haskell Servant

This is very much a WIP and I haven’t had much time for it lately, but the idea is to build an open-source solution for doing gift exchanges (e.g. Secret Santa). This was motivated by using other “free” gift exchange web apps and seeing how much advertising & personal data harvesting was going on. I also wanted to learn more about Haskell and Servant.


I started this project while learning German so I was using dict.cc frequently. Being able to run lookups from the terminal instead of having to navigate to the webpage each time was a big boon. I also wanted to improve my knowledge of Haskell so this was a good starting project.
