Free Monoidal Functors - Bartosz Milewski

In functional programming we neatly organize data into algebraic data types and use functors to create parameterized types. Of special interest are functors that are compatible with the algebra of types. Applicative functors, also known as lax monoidal functors, are compatible with the monoidal part of this algebra. Lists, which are free monoids, can be considered skeletons for interpreters, which we call folds. Free monoidal functors are skeletons for effectful interpreters.
