Do you like routes more defined as maps or functions?

jiriknesl 2020-12-15T19:50:08.189100Z

Today, we had a discussion. Practically everyone preferred reitit-like style with declarative maps. I have used haskell-ish do syntactic sugar and every route is a function and people didn’t like it. I don’t understand why as it is way more powerful.

I like data.

dominicm 2020-12-15T21:55:38.189400Z

Why is haskell's function version more powerful?

dominicm 2020-12-15T21:55:43.189500Z

What can it do that data cannot?
