Haskell Book Vietnamese Translation

[IMPACT]

For today's Blockchain platforms, especially Cardano, developers are one of the most important forces helping to develop decentralized applications on Cardano.

Vietnam is one of the countries with a very large number of developers. But English is one of the huge barriers for developers in Vietnam. Vietnam scored 486/800 points, ranking 66/112 countries and territories on the adult English proficiency index.

Developers in Vietnam have very limited access to Blockchain and Smart Contract documents. This prevents Cardano's number of developers from growing in Vietnam. Besides, Cardano's Smart Contract is also built on one of the rarest programming languages in Vietnam, Haskell.

Therefore, we will translate the book Real World Haskell (2008, O'Reilly Media) into Vietnamese and share it with IT universities in Vietnam as well as developer communities in Vietnam interested in blockchain. . Because, Real World Haskell (2008, O'Reilly Media) is one of the books full of Haskell knowledge from basic to advanced.

Creating multilingual Haskell documents, especially Vietnamese, is one of the first necessary steps to help developers in Vietnam easily access to building projects on Cardano.

Haskell is an uncommon programming language in Vietnam and there is very little documentation on Haskell in Vietnamese.

Therefore, this proposal will help to develop "Number of developers actively building on top of Cardano"

After completing the translation of the book Real World Haskell (2008, O'Reilly Media). We will be bringing this document along with other Haskell documents that we have translated previously to the developer communities interested in blockchain in Vietnam. We will share about Cardano's Blockchain technology and the superiority of programming with Haskell on Cardano

Haskell is a functional programming language. Therefore, it is quite difficult for existing developers (who are using imperative programming language) to quickly access Haskell.

To solve this problem, besides translating books, we also create detailed video tutorials on Youtube to help developers who have difficulty reading books.

[FEASIBILITY]

The first month: We will translate the entire book Real World Haskell (2008, O'Reilly Media) into Vietnamese (650 pages)

The second month: We will share this book with 10 developer communities in Vietnam. Goal: 200 downloads

The third month: We will share this book to 20 developer communities in Vietnam. Target: 500 downloads + 10 developers participating in the Pioneer Developer Program + 5 proposals from developers in Vietnam submitted to Catalyst

Translation cost: 10$ per page

Total pages: 650

Total: $6,500

[AUDITABILITY]

We will complete the translation into a pdf file and upload it to google drive for developers to download. It's not difficult to keep track of downloads on google drive.

The number of developers participating in the Plutus Pioneer course can be measured by registration forms.

The number of proposals submitted on Catalyst can be checked by "Has someone referred you to become a proposer?"

• Complete Vietnamese translation of the book Real World Haskell (2008, O'Reilly Media)
• Reached 500 downloads in the first 3 months
• 10 developers join the Plutus Pioneer Program
• 5 proposals from developers in Vietnam submitted to Catalyst

This is a new proposal
