Solution

We created a Haskell course in Vietnamese to help Vietnamese developers build projects on Cardano. This course will give developers understand how to code by Haskell basically

Problem:

Haskell is the base programing language of Cardano's Smart Contracts. A lot of developers are very interested in building projects on Cardano but there are not any Haskell courses in Vietnamese

[IMPACT] Please describe your proposed solution.

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.

The number of developers in Vietnam who are participating in blockchain is very large

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 (all of the videos are made in Vietnamese). 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

[IMPACT] Please describe how your proposed solution will address the Challenge that you have submitted it in.

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 Developers 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.

[IMPACT] What are the main risks that could prevent you from delivering the project successfully and please explain how you will mitigate each risk?

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 to answer learners' questions. Learners just need to leave a comment with the problem below the videos. We will show them how to solve those problems in the zoom meeting

[FEASIBILITY] Please provide a detailed plan, including timeline and key milestones for delivering your proposal.

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
Input and Output: 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

Our team submitted 2 other proposals in fund 9

Haskell Book Vietnamese Translation: https://cardano.ideascale.com/c/idea/414898
Haskell Course For Developers: https://cardano.ideascale.com/c/idea/414896

That's why we only plan to do 4 videos and 2 exercises per month to make sure the execution plan is doable (total working time: 34 hours/month).

We have 2 funded proposals in fund 8:

Haskell Course For Beginner: https://cardano.ideascale.com/c/idea/399961

We have finished 60% this proposal in the first month. Everyone can check on

Haskell Book Vietnamese Translation

In fund 8 we have done 60% Haskell Course for Beginner and translated a book (650 pages) in the first month. So we are fully capable to execute all 3 proposals in fund 9 if they are funded.

[FEASIBILITY] Please provide a detailed budget breakdown.

Video making: 23 videos

Average time to make a video: 6 hours (content making, record, edit)

Cost: 60$/hour

Video making total cost: 8,280USD

Exercise making: 11 exercises

Average time to make an exercise: 5 hours (20 exercise + solution)

[FEASIBILITY] If you are funded, will you return to Catalyst in a later round for further funding? Please explain why / why not.

If we are funded, we will return to Catalyst in a later round for further funding

Because this course is a basic course on Haskell, this proposal only helps Vietnamese developers to get acquainted with Haskell.

Therefore, to help developers can actually build Dapps on Cardano using Plutus.

We will build courses that are more advanced and can be practically applied to building Dapps

[AUDITABILITY] Please describe what you will measure to track your project's progress, and how will you measure these?

All lesson videos will be uploaded to Youtube in public mode so everyone can watch and keep track.

We will measure the number of video viewers, likes, comments and subscribers to understand the impact these videos have on viewers.

Exercises will be uploaded to Github

[AUDITABILITY] What does success for this project look like?

We created a course where Vietnamese developers who wants to become developers 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 in Vietnam.

Plutus Pioneer Program participants will also gain the basics of Haskell to learn more effectively.

6 months after we finished the video lessons

We will help at least 50 people join the Plutus Pioneer Program course and 10 proposals submitted on Catalyst through Vietnamese Haskell Course
Our Youtube channel got 500 subscribers
Each video has more than 100 views, 20 likes and comments

Note: Education and learning videos on Youtube often don't have as many views as other entertainment videos

[AUDITABILITY] Please provide information on whether this proposal is a continuation of a previously funded project in Catalyst or an entirely new one.

This is a new proposal
