Hi!
I put together the hakyll-nix-template some time ago. It is a reasonable way to get started with nix and hakyll, and I've made a good number of updates that I thought merited a tutorial.
I think the hakyll defaults in the project are fairly useful, and the next thing I'm doing for the template, for example, will be hashing content (like CSS) and using that to break caches on CSS, JS, etc. If and when that happens, this tutorial will be updated!
I've enjoyed hakyll, and I appreciate being able to extend it to do what I want. For example, I use post titles to generate HTML slugs, but I wasn't satisfied with what the Haskell ecosystem offered, so I wrote my own (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/slugger), released it, and use it via the
hakyll-nix-template
.
