Comment on 2022 State of Haskell Survey

As a non-Haskeller, the only tool I can think of interacting with that has any Haskell is Hasura's graphql-engine[0], which GitHub stats say is 28% Haskell (and then like 55% web languages, so I assume the backend is all Haskell and the web languages are for the UI it presents etc)

Are there other popular Haskell tools? Or is it more of an academic language? I was surprised to see it on the GitHub repo.

Thinking about "tools" in a more general sense, I'd mention Pandoc,¹ which is an end-user application, and PureScirpt,² a programming language.

² https://www.purescript.org

There are lots of popular, mature, and awesome Haskell projects: https://github.com/search?q=language%3Ahaskell+stars%3A%3E10...

GitHub uses Haskell for all its code analyzation, so you're interacting with it all the time! => https://github.com/github/semantic
