If you're not a fan of the ruby-on-rails / swiss army knife approach that IHP takes, check out Scotty. Add Lucid for Html rendering, and Selda for Postgres. (There are other options for any of these tools if you prefer)

  - Scotty (simple web routing) https://hackage.haskell.org/package/scotty
  - Lucid (html rendering) https://hackage.haskell.org/package/lucid
  - Selda (postgres) https://selda.link/

hmm, last time I used Scotty, I thought it was the exact opposite of Rails and more like Sinatra. It's less batteries included and more flexible and lightweight. Yesod is more like RoR, no? Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you mean by swiss army knife?
you missed the "not a fan" part
Oh gawd. I totally did, my bad! Time for more coffee. Thanks
Did selda get the hug of death?
