A few things I learned from functional programming and Haskell, a thread. 🧵 1/N Referential transparency is freeing.
I can trust code and not be surprised by effects, and use substitution to understand what's going on. I feel like I can always understand how something works in the end because I have a simple process to figure things out.

I like building stuff with #Haskell.

In this thread I'd like to share with you a few selected side projects I've made over the years 👇🧵

1/N My first real Haskell program was hablog, a blog/website server, built with scotty, that powers my website (gilmi.me) to this day.

It dynamically converts markdown files to html and serves them.
