Summer of Haskell

Haskell.org GSoC results for 2019

Posted on January 10, 2020 by Jasper Van der Jeugt (permalink)

Haskell.org took part in Google Summer of Code again in 2019, and we had some really successful projects!

Unfortunately; this summary is less successful – I meant to contact the students immediately after the summer, but that mail never went through and I failed to follow up on it – my apologies.

In either case, I still wanted to list the successful projects here for posterirty. I reached out to the students again and will be updating this post with more information and quotes as they get back to me.
