I want subtitles to perform their primary accessibility function. How about YouTube annotations?

I had forgotten about annotations, those might be ideally suited for editor and env tips. Honestly, I use Emacs, so I'm not that interested in the vim tips, I just didn't want these to turn into a series of Haskell-with-Vim casts. :) even thought your env does looks pretty slick.

Really nice video, looking forward to more!

Yep exactly. I want to keep the videos per se as env-agnostic as possible to not get in the way of the Haskell.

I'll make a video on my setup, but:

Left: vim with Vim Haskell Mode[1], a pale imitation of emacs haskell minor mode that nevertheless gets the job done. ;)

Top right: GHCi

Bottom right: Guard, as mentioned, using guard-shell[2] to compile the file and run main using runghci.

[1] https://github.com/lukerandall/haskellmode-vim [2] https://github.com/guard/guard-shell

Maybe that info should be on the page itself somewhere. I wouldn't know to look at the github to find your guard script: https://github.com/haskelllive/haskelllive/blob/master/Guard...

Good call. I'll add that to the About. I'm going to do a quick supplemental vide on the setup as well between now and next episode.

I'm going to have to side with spacemanaki here.

My biggest focus in using vim was to get it out of the way so that I could focus on the Haskell. I wanted the environment (editor, compiler, window manager, test runner, etc) to be as transparent as possible. This is not, in point of fact, a series of vim tutorial videos.

I will make a video that explains my dev environment as a supplement, however.

I'd be happy to answer any vim questions in the comments (github issues, which I will hopefully figure out how to embed in the site eventually), and I do like the idea of adding call out boxes (no need to use subtitles, they can go on the video itself) to highlight interesting vim trickery.

These are great points and I will do my best to incorporate them in future episodes. Thanks very much for taking the time.

Also, would love to see some explanation of basic Haskell concepts

I appreciate your opinion but I will respectfully point out that I am making these videos for the other set of people who do like video coding tutorials. You should feel free to not watch them if they do not preserve the water-dorsal relationship of your water-going vessel. :)

Congratulations, really good work. Making videos is hard, at least for me cos I'm not native, and they get easily outdated.

For a .Net guy with a little knowledge of Haskell like me, in the video you can show not only the language but the IDE and the programming experience.

Thank you all so much for your feedback. And thanks to the OP for posting this. I can't make everyone happy all the time but I'll do my best to make each episode better than the last.

Don't change too much, it's already a splendid format!

Can you give us more details at help.phpfog.com please? (apologies if I'm breaking HN etiquette)

"I'm always surprised by those that will hem and haw over something that's not open-source." Open source has its place, as does proprietary software. Hemming and hawing aside, your market votes with their feet -- and that's exactly how you'll find out if you're properly situated.

That said, can you please not turn a post about Fun into a marketing platform for NOLOH? Fun may be fun, but your elevator pitch definitely isn't.

As you can see from my initial comment I was just pointing out similar functionality in NOLOH that can be done right now. Others replied with questions to which I answered. There's nothing wrong with that, it's a natural part of Hacker News. As you can see from some of the other posts, other technologies were mentioned too.

Since you just created your HN account you should know that HN is more about discussion than anything else.
