[IMPACT]
Haskell is a general-purpose, statically-typed, purely functional programming language with type inference and lazy evaluation. So it is quite difficult for developers from other programming languages and beginners to approach and learn Haskell.
Therefore, we built a Haskell course in Vietnamese so that Vietnamese developers from other programming languages can learn Haskell more easily.
We created the simplest Haskell video tutorials for Vietnamese developers to learn. The content of the course will be based on the book Learn You a Haskell for Great Good! A Beginner’s Guide (recommended book from IOHK in the Plutus Pioneer Program). These videos will be uploaded on Youtube
Content:
- Type in Haskell
- Syntax in Functions
- Recursion
- Higher-Order Functions
- Modules
- Making Our Own Types and Type Classes
- Input and Output
- Functionally Solving Problems
- Monoids
- Monads
Besides, we create practice exercises so that learners can practice the knowledge they have learned from the video. Because to be able to use Haskell, learners need to practice a lot. These exercises will be uploaded on Github
Haskell is a functional programming language and it is not as popular as other imperative programming languages. Besides, Haskell’s programming style is very different from today’s popular programming languages. This creates a barrier for developers to access and build products on Cardano
Haskell Course for Vietnamese is a course that can help Vietnamese developers from other programming languages access Haskell in a simpler way. This can help a large number of Vietnamese developers from other programming languages switch to building projects on Cardano.
Once the course is completed, we will share these videos with the developer communities of other blockchain platforms and developers interested in blockchain.
We are also admin for several communities interested in Cardano who want to become developers to create projects on Cardano. We will be sharing this course with these communities.

Learning a new programming language often have a lot of problems such as: Error when coding, unsuccessful installation of ghci, difficulty in algorithms,… Therefore, only learning through videos on Youtube and the exercise will be very difficult.
We will create Zoom Q&A sessions every 2 weeks to answer learners’ questions. Learners just need to leave a comment with the problem below the video. We will show you how to solve those problems in the zoom meeting

The content of the course will be based on the book Learn You a Haskell for Great Good! A Beginner’s Guide:
The first month:
- Installing Haskell: 1 tutorial video
- Basic Function: 1 tutorial video, 1 exercise, 1 exercise solution video
- Type in Haskell: 1 tutorial video, 1 exercise, 1 exercise solution video
The second month
- Syntax in Functions: 1 tutorial video, 1 exercise, 1 exercise solution video
- Recursion: 1 tutorial video, 1 exercise, 1 exercise solution video
The third month
- Higher-Order Functions: 1 tutorial video, 1 exercise, 1 exercise solution video
- Modules: 1 tutorial video, 1 exercise, 1 exercise solution video
The forth month
- Making Our Own Types and Type Classes: 1 tutorial video, 1 exercise, 1 exercise solution video

The fifth month
- Functionally Solving Problems: 1 tutorial video, 1 exercise, 1 exercise solution video
- Monoids: 1 tutorial video, 1 exercise, 1 exercise solution video
The sixth month
- Monads: 1 tutorial video, 1 exercise, 1 exercise solution video
As each video is completed, we will share it with 5 groups of developers interested in blockchain, smart contract programming and dapp building, and 5 groups interested in Cardano.
After 6 months we will help at least 50 people join the Plutus Pioneer Program course and 10 proposals submitted on Catalyst through Haskell Course For Vietnamese

All lesson videos will be uploaded to Youtube in public mode so everyone can watch and keep track.
Exercises will be uploaded to Github
We created a course where Vietnamese who wants to become a developer on Cardano can easily use Haskell to build projects on Cardano.
Haskell Course for Vietnamese will become a basic course for everyone including novices who want to learn Haskell.
Plutus Pioneer Program participants will also gain the basics of Haskell to learn more effectively.
After 6 months we will help at least 50 people join the Plutus Pioneer Program course and 10 proposals submitted on Catalyst through Haskell Course For Beginner
This is a new proposal
