A technical vision for the Haskell ecosystem

By · Published by Everything Blog

In short

The Haskell Foundation's technical leadership committee is actively developing initiatives that require funding and execution, inviting community members to provide feedback and submit counter-proposals. Its broader strategy focuses on enhancing beginner onboarding, expert productivity, and enterprise scaling through Haskell's inherent type safety and design constraints. Priority projects include accelerating iteration cycles and modernizing diagnostic tooling. As an operational milestone, the committee specifically targets slashing Glasgow Haskell Compiler continuous integration turnaround times from six hours down to two.

Hi all,

the technical leadership committee of the Haskell Foundation has been successfully bootstrapped!

We have spent the last few weeks discussing our vision and strategy and are now fully operational.

We’re going to actively develop initiatives and proposals that we believe need funding and execution. For that we need companies, contractors and volunteers to help. Everyone can participate, whether it’s by dropping ideas informally, writing a concrete proposal themselves or finding entities that could support or fund initiatives.

We tried to keep the community proposal process as light as possible. However, we believe that fairness and participation are vital, especially when funding is involved, so anyone who writes a proposal should be aware that we will open the floor for the community to comment or even deliver counter-proposals. The process may evolve as we make experiences and get feedback.

Below is our vision. Feel free to get in touch with us!

We believe that Haskell is awesome and that it can provide unique value to everyone, because it sits at an interesting intersection between human…
