Haskell in Production: Mercury

In our Haskell in Production series, we interview developers and technical leaders from companies that use Haskell for real-world tasks. We cover benefits, downsides, common pitfalls, and tips for building useful Haskell products.

Our today’s guest is Max Tagher. He’s the co-founder and CTO of Mercury, a company that provides banking products to startups. Read further to learn where Mercury uses Haskell, why they chose it, and what they like about it.

Best practices for managing Java dependencies

Creating Java applications is great, and many resources are available. To speed up development, many folks use frameworks and libraries that do some of the heavy lifting. When looking at modern Java applications, almost all of them contain dependencies from libraries developed by someone else.

Dependencies take up about 80 to 90 percent of the binary — so, we should take good care of them when creating a Java project. In this article, I’ll give you some advice and best practices for dealing with Java dependencies in your project.
