There's also Frege: https://github.com/Frege/frege It's also Haskell for the JVM. Made me wonder why there are two efforts. Found an explanation: https://github.com/typelead/eta/issues/3

comment by tadfisher · 2017-05-03 · in GUI Architectures (2006)

I'd personally just support Frege more instead of reinventing the wheel. https://github.com/Frege/frege

comment by mistaken · 2017-01-11 · in Eta – A powerful language for building scalable systems on the JVM

Why do we need this? We've already had Frege ( https://github.com/Frege/frege ) filling this role for roughly three years now. Seems to me the DRY principal doesn't just apply to personal projects but to public works as well.

comment by taylodl · 2017-01-11 · in Eta – A powerful language for building scalable systems on the JVM

…yet, but you could give Frege a try. Frege, as opposed to other solutions, is Haskell in a JVM. https://github.com/Frege/frege

comment by cies · 2016-02-18 · in Go 1.6 is Released

Thanks! This was largely inspired by Frege ( https://github.com/Frege/frege ) which has been on HN before, but is worth checking out.

Have you considered/tried out Frege? https://github.com/Frege/frege From the github page "The similarity to Haskell is actually strong enough that many users call it 'a Haskell for the JVM'."

Unfortunately, the Wiki page is a bit outdated. The repo contains an example folder: https://github.com/Frege/frege/tree/master/examples And, of course, the compiler is itself written in Frege.
