Hmm. Maybe we should sort this out. It's incomplete. The Web category is sporadic: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Category:Web
Supposing we made a Web/Foo namespace and got some proper hierarchy. Of interest to most people are: * What can I do? * How can I do it? * Who has already done it? * Why did they do it like this? * What needs doing? * How up to date is all this information? Our discussions here, on IRC and on web-devel should really be documented. It should be that whenever we create or discover something substantial for web dev we should document it with examples on the Wiki. There isn't much centralised comparison of frameworks and libraries, either. One could make a table of frameworks/libraries and their features a la Wikipedia does. I don't know many frameworks but other people can fill the holes in. http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Web is a good start, as is http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Applications_and_libraries/Web_programming for examples http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Formlets is also a good example of giving examples of a library. It's nice to link to some blog or external page but those disappear or lose relevance/compatibility over time, whereas a Wiki remains, and anyone can update it. For this reason I think it's a good idea for us to put work into the wiki. I'll reformat the entire Web category (immutably! I'll do it in Web/..) as a proposal, see what you guys think.
