    That is a good summary of the options for Haskell web development. The author of this slide deck also wrote "Beginning Haskell." I bought this book and like it. That said I have an addiction to buying Haskell books :-) Personally, I use Yesod for complicated apps, otherwise Spock.

    I'm somewhat new to web dev and new to functional programming. Can someone tell me how this is fundamentally different that ClojureScript + OM (https://github.com/omcljs/om) ?

    It looks like a good start. I've been trying to learn Haskell and F Sharp and other functional languages and always wondered if there was a web option.

    I'd like to see something like this, but with JSON-based APIs instead of HTML templating.

    What's the most rails or django-esque framework for haskell?

    Does it support a "React" style of building web applications?
