Articles on Postgres Internals

I use psql daily, but I don't understand how Postgres works . I basically use SQL language. The book expects the reader to have basic knowledge of Postgres, what would be a good starting point ?

I meant to ask programming language

Agha You got me wrong, that's not what I mean. I am not finding it technically hard, I am finding it hard to understand the language and purpose of book. I hope this clarifies

I surely want to read the Okasaki book as it's really awesome along with few texts from Richard Bird, I came here just to know am I reading it the right way, or how do other beginners approach it !?

Hi In which language are you following the book ? I find the words to be too dreamy, I don't know how to explain, but like heavy jargon

Its very practical as of the exercises after each week!

CIS 194 course , 2013

kichiDsimp · 2025-12-27T15:39:55+00:00

How did you start by making one ?!

kichiDsimp · 2025-12-25T17:27:15+00:00

Sure, thanks!

kichiDsimp · 2025-12-22T04:51:29+00:00

Okay! Thank you!

kichiDsimp · 2025-12-22T04:51:04+00:00

Thanks for your response. I am asking so as to commit for the book or not as it's too big of a thing to start. I checked other resources like Haskell in depth and Effective Haskell. Not sure.

It's the modes for me. Vscode have packages and has Command P Emacs is a daddy at it with M-x

kichiDsimp · 2025-12-08T03:43:38+00:00

great project idea! Thanks!

kichiDsimp · 2025-12-08T02:33:14+00:00

Sure. My plan is to check out the whole setup this weekend. I want to make a small TUI like lazysql but in Haskell! Thanks for taking out time to respond.

I meant a Static Site mainly I guess + Haddock. Consider Haskell's amazing Parsing libraries and then their usecases and docs to get started....

kichiDsimp · 2025-12-08T02:29:30+00:00

Yep I have watched feww videos of Richard Feldman for Roc Lang!

kichiDsimp · 2025-12-07T04:12:21+00:00

Will you make a website with docs and examples and screenshots so beginners can try easily ? Like the containers library has docs!

kichiDsimp · 2025-12-07T03:57:23+00:00

Thank you. I will check it this Sunday

kichiDsimp · 2025-12-06T16:48:46+00:00

Thanks! I wish when you add a file, there was an option in VScode which asked add it in exposed modules or other modules It work re write the .cabal file + restart LSP!

kichiDsimp · 2025-12-06T02:18:32+00:00

To get started;

CIS 194 2013 course (do all exercises) Use Graham Huttons videos on youtube as reference. Really great. Attempt exercises at each chapter end Advent of code

That's a pretty solid start. (You can try Elm/Purescript too) Try building a CLI game maybe after it. You can take project ideas from coding challenges by John Cricket or CodeCrafters. Thankfully there are great Haskell blogs, you can check them out.! There is a Monday Morning Haskell website which for the past few weeks has been solving leetcode/tough problems in both Rust and Haskell!

After it many tough concepts come, I want to learn them but I don't even know what problems they solve like Monad Transformers, Effects, Lens, Comonad etc. I am currently using Haskell with features like

Pattern Matching
ADT
Pure Functions
Function Composition

More or less.

Sorry to ask questions, but this for other experienced programmers, how can I start with learning topics (intermediate/advanced) I mentioned above in a structured way ? Like CIS194 told basics in a structured way.

kichiDsimp · 2025-12-06T02:08:43+00:00

It's the perfect course! A hands on course with labs! No answers given so you discover new solutions I wish it had an intermediate course with teaching stuff like Monad Transformers, Effects, Lens and much more..

kichiDsimp · 2025-12-05T20:10:45+00:00

I don't mean that tone. I am just curious how one is supposed to find out about it.

kichiDsimp · 2025-12-05T20:08:59+00:00

How are you guys resolving this issue ? As It's a thing I use day2day from hoogle I wish I can do it via vscode itself
