I spun up two Haskell teams at work, and now it composes about half of our codebases. Happy to answer questions about the experience.
What kind of applications your team are working it? How's the overall development process felt? I'd like to know the reason to choose Haskell over other languages.
We built an Android app in Haskell because Python was too hard for loading shared objects.
We started from nothing in January, shipped the app last month.
We have 2.5 developers.

Can you elaborate the process? The only reference I could only find this: https://wiki.haskell.org/Android.
How did you end up developing/deploying your UI?
The process was learning Functional Reactive Programming, then learning reflex-frp, then getting a contract with obsidian (creators of reflex) for one hour a week where we could ask questions.

We had a grant requirement to create a phone client for Tahoe-LAFS, a Python application with a bunch of dependencies, including ZFEC, a forward error correction library.

We needed bug for bug compatibility with the Python codebase, so I ran Tahoe on localhost and tested the Haskell client against the Python server. We used servant to build the API, since it builds both client and server side from the same description.
