The situation seems to have improved a bit since last I looked, but I still think it needs a basic howto about how to do stuff. I know you can figure most things out by looking at the types, but that's exactly where newbies lack experience, and you have search quite a bit for the information here, but thanks for the link. It's definitely better than it was

Yes, there is definitely no single through-line from "i know nothing" to "I can now program a microcontroller in Haskell" or whatever. It's a language which grew out of academia and still has a whiff of self-learning about it.
