A SkillsCast for this session is not available.
As generics-sop makes use of several Haskell type system extensions such as data kinds, constraint kinds, type families, higher-ranked types, this can also serve as an introduction to type-level programming in Haskell.
The introduction will be followed by an interactive part where participants can work on exercises or try to write their own generic functions using generics-sop. Participants who want to hack on or improve generics-sop are also welcome.
