What are some interesting Haskell projects I can work on?

There are many exciting Haskell projects you can explore! Here are a few ideas:

1. A web scraper using libraries like 'http-conduit' and 'tagsoup'.
2. A simple game using the 'Gloss' library.
3. A command-line tool for data analysis with 'aeson' for JSON handling.
4. A Haskell-based REST API using 'Servant'. Which one interests you?

I'm interested in building a web scraper. Can you guide me on how to start?

Sure! To start building a web scraper in Haskell, follow these steps:

1. Install the necessary libraries: 'http-conduit' for making HTTP requests and 'tagsoup' for parsing HTML.
2. Choose a website to scrape and identify the data you want to extract.
3. Write a function to fetch the webpage content using 'http-conduit'.
4. Use 'tagsoup' to parse the HTML and extract the desired data.
5. Test your scraper and handle any potential errors. Would you like code examples for any of these steps?

Yes, please provide a code example for fetching a webpage.

Here's a simple example of how to fetch a webpage using 'http-conduit':

{-# LANGUAGE OverloadedStrings #-}
import Network.HTTP.Simple

main :: IO ()
main = do
    response <- httpLBS "http://example.com"
    putStrLn $ "The response body is:
" ++ show (getResponseBody response)

This code will fetch the content of 'http://example.com' and print the response body. Let me know if you need further assistance!
