servant - A Type-Level Web DSL
Quotes
Servant may just be the coolest single Haskell library.
- ephrion, reddit
servant is awesome so far, there's really nothing else like it right now for haskell. ... It's absolutely fantastic, I look back at my old [other haskell web framework] code and it might as well have been javascript. Great work, just great.
- dmj, #servant
It is one of the coolest libraries I have ever seen.
- Taylor Fausak, Type safe web services in Haskell with Servant
Tutorial
We have a tutorial guide that introduces the core types and features of servant. After this article, you should be able to write your first servant webservices, learning the rest from the haddocks' examples.

Contributing
Contributions are very welcome! To hack on the github version, clone the
repository. You can use cabal:
./scripts/start-sandbox.sh # Initialize the sandbox and add-source the packages
./scripts/test-all.sh # Run all the tests
stack:
stack build # Install and build packages
stack test # Run all the tests
Or nix:
./scripts/generate-nix-files.sh # Get up-to-date shell.nix files
Though we aren't sticklers for style, the .stylish-haskell.yaml and HLint.hs
files in the repository provide a good baseline for consistency.
Please include a description of the changes in your PR in the CHANGELOG.md of
the packages you've changed. And of course, write tests!
