Redefining the future of web development with Haskell by Martin Šošić

At Wasp, we are building an innovative full-stack web framework centered around the concept of a unique DSL used to define the high level of your web app. In this talk, I will explain how we used Haskell to implement the compiler that parses our DSL and generates JS/TS code (including the language server), how we built our CLI with it, how we used it to quickly implement an AI-powered app generator, and how we currently contribute to the Haskell ecosystem.

This is an awesome video, just what is needed to enlighten things about Haskell-related stuff, and that it is really interesting and nice to do :)
