Recursion Schemes
A curated collection of resources for learning and applying recursion schemes in functional programming.
What is Recursion Schemes?
Awesome Recursion Schemes is a curated list of resources dedicated to the topic of recursion schemes in functional programming. It compiles tutorials, academic papers, presentations, and library implementations to help developers learn how to use these patterns for automating recursion over data structures. The project solves the problem of scattered information by providing a single, organized reference point.
Functional programmers, particularly those using Haskell or Scala, who want to deepen their understanding of advanced recursion patterns. It's also valuable for academics and developers exploring category theory applications in software design.
Developers choose this resource because it aggregates high-quality, community-vetted materials from experts like Edward Kmett and Bartosz Milewski into one accessible location. Its unique value is in bridging theoretical concepts with practical implementations across multiple programming languages.
