Yesod
Yesod is a development tool used to create highly efficient websites and web applications from the ground up. Yesod includes almost everything you need to build a website, from templates to routing and execution. When creating web applications with the software, Yesod automatically detects the type of data in the programming language you are using to generate accurate links and deal with any problems from character encoding. Yesod also uses Haskell to automatically begin operations once it receives the signal that the previous operation has finished. This allows the developer to just write their code without worry, and as far as writing the code, Yesod lets you write simpler code fast and offers domain-specific languages for templates and such for even more efficiency. Yesod tries to provide the easiest and safest method to develop high-quality web applications. Yesod is definitely a convenient and efficient tool for creating web applications. It provides almost everything needed to make complete websites for free and with little to no issues. Yesod is a type-safe software so that helps to keep any errors from coding to a minimum which is great to keep downtime spent going back and forth over the type. The compile-time checking just adds to the already high efficiency. Yesod has an overall clean syntax that makes using the program stress-free since you know your web application will work smoothly. Yesod has what may be the fastest Haskell web framework and Template Haskell helps to avoid typing the same thing over and over. One downside to Yesod is that learning how to use it can prove to be difficult. The learning curve is hard to grasp, however, once you learn to use it, a lot of things are already there for you to use so the efficiency and speed can prove to be greater than a lot of competitors and ultimately makes it worth the trouble.
