I’m new to programming, but I’ve been reading about tech for a while. I noticed that one language that gets mentioned quite often is Haskell. Could someone explain what’s the big deal with Haskell? Why do people push it so much? Trying to learn.

It is genuinely different from many other languages, while also having enough of an ecosystem to allow you to write useful programs. For me, my brain likes how Haskell works, but I am probably in the minority with that. In programming discussions like these, I don’t think enough credit is given to the idea that people’s brains are just different, so if you check it out and don’t like it, its all good.
