It would be nice if there was a "what is scalaz" before I knew if I wanted to learn it.


Scalaz is a Scala library that gives you Haskell in Scala.

I've got exactly two imports I require for every Scala project - Scalaz and Scalacheck (quickcheck style testing lib).

Also very nice, albeit slow, is scalaz stream.

The cool kids are quickly abandoning scalaz for cats [1], in fact the exodus may already essentially be complete, as evidenced by the author's subsequent work [2]. I guess that's what happens when your project just attracts too many _ssholes.
