Building a Blogging System with Haskell and Yesod - Part 2 of 6

on YouTube ↗55m

" summary

Part of a six‑session workshop that actually builds a blogging system with Haskell and Yesod: concrete work on Yesod’s widgets compose HTML CSS JS, turning Hamlet/Lucius/Julius snippets into reusable components, making a footer exercise compile, and using newIdent generates unique ids so styles don’t clash. Covers defaultLayout, how widget resources are deduplicated, the handler monad for request handling, route parameter parsing (dynamic segments typed to Text), and mentions running IO and database actions from handlers.
