Is it doing fine? There's lots of "cool" stuff, but in my perception it's still a long shot to "fine with real-world problems".

What's a complex real-world program written in Haskell? It seems to be good for trees (compilers like GHC, although it is kind of slow). Is there a non-toy graphics or graph-ical application that is both performant and written in Haskell?

Not denying that it's possible to write C-style in it, of course... only it's not fun.




At my previous company we used Haskell for a very complex, edge-case ridden, algorithm heavy path finding and pricing backend.

For other uses, [0].

Of course it would be nice to have examples that we can actually look at. Also that webpage is known to mostly not point to easy to find information.
