Hedsql
Contact: Léonard Monnier
Homepage: https://github.com/momomimachli/Hedsql
Required skill level: Beginner
By order of difficulty, the following things could be done:
Data.Text support
Level: beginner
Description: use Data.Text instead of String
Injection tests
Level: beginner in Haskell, solid SQL knowledge
Description: ensure that the library is dealing correctly against SQL injection.
Database tests
Level: beginner/intermediate
Description: write the integration tests against real databases (SqLite, PostgreSQL and MariaDB).
Add new SQL functionalities
Level: intermediate Description:
Add support to additional SQL functions such as:
- ALTER statements
- types (such as time-stamp, date, etc.)
- various SQL vendor functions such as "sqlite3_last_insert_rowid()" for example.
It implies to work through the full stack:
- create a new function/datatype in the AST
- create a new constructor function to generate the AST
- create new parser(s) function(s) to generate the SQL code.
Architecture
Level: expert
Description: the library is currently using a State Monad for writing SELECT queries, but maybe there is a better way.

Hoodle
Contact: Ian-Woo Kim
Homepage: http://ianwookim.org/hoodle
Required skill level: Advanced
Hoodle is a pen notetaking program written almost entirely in Haskell. It's one of rather rare GUI programs in Haskell world. Recently, I upgraded hoodle to use Gtk3, and therefore much modernized and easier to be ported to other platform natively. In this hackathon, I would like to stabilize this Gtk3 port and want to try to port the program to many different platform (especially targetting OS X and hopefully windows), and modernize tablet input part to use gtk3 counterpart, not use custom X11 C FFI. I also want to add some shiny new features if possible during the hackathon.
