Having learned Haskell in University, I've not yet used it in my role as a software developer.

What are the real world use cases for Haskell?

I like to use https://www.libhunt.com/l/haskell to explore popular Haskell projects. The three projects with the most stars on GitHub are:

ShellCheck, which checks shell scripts for potential problems
Pandoc, which converts documents between different formats
Postgrest, which serves a REST API from postgres databases

There's also the State of the Haskell Ecosystem page which rates the level of maturity of different use-cases and programming needs.
