Good Haskell source to read and learn from

HaskellCoding StyleOpen Source

Haskell Problem Overview

What are some open source programs that use Haskell and can be considered to be good quality modern Haskell? The larger the code base, the better.

I want to learn from their source code. I feel I'm past the point of learning from small code examples, which are often to esoteric and small-world. I want to see how code is structured, how monads interact when you have a lot of things going on (logging, I/O, configuration, etc.).

Haskell Solutions

Solution 1 - Haskell

What I recommend.

Read code by people from different grad schools in the 1990s

Read code by the old masters certain people (incomplete list)

Note that people like me, Coutts, Mitchell, O'Sullivan, Lynagh, etc. learned our Haskell style from these guys.

Read some applications

Solution 2 - Haskell

XMonad is an open source tiling window manager, originally loosely modeled on dwm. There are a lot of extensions, of varying quality, but the core is compact and well organized.

Solution 4 - Haskell

Darcs is an open source, source code management system. It should give you a nice idea for Haskell.

Solution 5 - Haskell

The source code to the Yesod Web Platform is fairly complex, well thought out, and well written. You will learn a lot from the persistence library that comes with it as well.

Solution 6 - Haskell

If you care about Web-programming I would recommend Chris Done's lpaste project.

Solution 7 - Haskell

GHC is probably the biggest or one of the biggest projects written in Haskell that is open source. When I say biggest, I do not just mean in terms of source size, but also impact, use, innovation, robustness. GHC can teach you a lot about writing Haskell.
