I started building straight away from day 1, getting a decent REST API together is surprisingly easy. You really don't need to understand most of the advanced type level stuff to stay productive.

Maybe you tried to go for too high abstraction level straight off the bat? That can turn out very depressing on Haskell.

Yes, for that reason I recommend Will Kurt's Haskell book instead. It's way more practical.
