State of the Haskell ecosystem – August 2015 by Gabriel Gonzalez.
From the webpage:
In this post I will describe the current state of the Haskell ecosystem to the best of my knowledge and its suitability for various programming domains and tasks. The purpose of this post is to discuss both the good and the bad by advertising where Haskell shines while highlighting where I believe there is room for improvement.
This post is grouped into two sections: the first section covers Haskell’s suitability for particular programming application domains (i.e. servers, games, or data science) and the second section covers Haskell’s suitability for common general-purpose programming needs (such as testing, IDEs, or concurrency).
The topics are roughly sorted from greatest strengths to greatest weaknesses. Each programming area will also be summarized by a single rating of either:
- Best in class: the best experience in any language
- Mature: suitable for most programmers
- Immature: only acceptable for early-adopters
- Bad: pretty unusable
The more positive the rating the more I will support the rating with success stories in the wild. The more negative the rating the more I will offer constructive advice for how to improve things.

There is nothing that provokes discussion more than a listing of items with quality rankings!
Enjoy!
