Author Topic: so i'm learning haskell and doing nothing else, and i need some information  (Read 419 times)

what can haskell mainly be used for? i don't plan on making video games or designing complex applications, but does it have anything to do with web design? can i make applications for mobile devices on it?

i'll have more later, but for now i need those answered.

I asked my brother who is big into functional programming languages and he knew about those off-hand for the purposes of game development.

What a completely bonkers choice for a first language though. More power to you if you go anywhere with it.

edit: misread your post. You're asking for things besides game dev and want web stuff. I'm sure something will come up through Google~

The only use in terms of web dev that Haskell would have would be back-end. (aka running code on the server's end) This can be done by many languages.
As for front-end (like the design of the website and code that runs on the clients' end) that'd be Javascript + HTML + CSS.
