2026-06-17 19:27:21 +0000 <[exa]> but essentially if your API complexity is insane, servant just does it
2026-06-17 19:27:02 +0000 <[exa]> which might kinda sound like an oxymoron, right
2026-06-17 19:26:49 +0000 <[exa]> servant is for extremely integrated deployments of distributed softwares
2026-06-17 19:25:58 +0000 <vms14> servant feels like the one you might want to use for something serious, but i do not know
2026-06-17 19:25:11 +0000 <vms14> i should keep an eye on other options too i guess
2026-06-17 19:24:59 +0000 <vms14> i'll try scotty for now and see how it goes
2026-06-17 19:24:46 +0000 <vms14> ty guys for the feedback and recommendations

2026-06-17 19:23:48 +0000 <vms14> i also like how simple the hello world is
2026-06-17 19:23:32 +0000 <vms14> :D
2026-06-17 19:23:24 +0000 <vms14> then ask ai for a hello world and ghc it
2026-06-17 19:23:10 +0000 <vms14> indebian is just to apt install libghc-scotty-dev
2026-06-17 19:23:03 +0000 <vms14> [exa]: yes

2026-06-17 19:22:44 +0000 <[exa]> vms14: did it hello?

2026-06-17 19:22:00 +0000 <vms14> i was trying to install scotty and run a hello world

2026-06-17 19:18:35 +0000 <[exa]> oh it's got builtin database pooling support, that kinda helps yeah
2026-06-17 19:16:42 +0000 <[exa]> I wonder about the definition of "easier" there
2026-06-17 19:15:34 +0000 <geekosaur> supposedly it's easier to get working

2026-06-17 19:12:29 +0000 <[exa]> also there's spock but I failed to see what's the difference there
2026-06-17 19:12:13 +0000 <[exa]> vms14: +1 for scotty, it's tiny and works just right for almost all cases (think kindof like sqlite-- it's not magically greatest, but "just" covers 98% usecases)

2026-06-17 19:08:08 +0000 <monochrom> scotty looks nice. Thanks.
2026-06-17 18:59:55 +0000 <jaror> but it relies more on typeclasses
2026-06-17 18:59:39 +0000 <jaror> There's also mig-server which is a more modern take and it seems to be less imperative

2026-06-17 18:57:36 +0000 <jaror> For a while twain was a more modern alternative that people seemed to like, but it does not seem to be actively developed the last two years

2026-06-17 18:51:31 +0000 <jaror> I think scotty is the most mature simple web server built on warp

2026-06-17 18:48:09 +0000 <vms14> i was going to paste the link
2026-06-17 18:48:02 +0000 <vms14> oh i was reading that lol
2026-06-17 18:46:08 +0000 <EvanR> https://aosabook.org/en/posa/warp.html
2026-06-17 18:46:00 +0000 <EvanR> "on par with"
2026-06-17 18:45:50 +0000 <EvanR> you mean mighty?
2026-06-17 18:45:36 +0000 <vms14> EvanR: and warp is faster than nginx? :0
2026-06-17 18:45:11 +0000 <EvanR> the docs on warp speaks of a benchmark comparison between nginx and mighty, which is built on warp. Instead of comparing warp directly
2026-06-17 18:44:49 +0000 <vms14> but i'm also curious whether someone does serious stuff
