Considering that F# has a larger community than both Haskell and Scala combined. Yet they both have free semester long courses on edx and coursera and F# has none. Why can’t the F# community come together and launch a free course on coursera?
As I know only universities can do courses on Coursera – it makes things a bit harder. Feel free to ask this question once again on Twitter with hash tag #fsharp to get latest news about that topic. Please take a note that we have a couple of another courses http://fsharp.org/training/
