How to do it...

1. Create a new project, form-handling-in-snap, with the simple stack template:

        stack --resolver lts-9.1 new form-handling-in-snap simple

2. Add a dependency on the following libraries in the build-depends subsection of the executable section, as follows:

   executable form-handling-in-snap
    hs-source-dirs:      src
    main-is:             Main.hs
    default-language:    Haskell2010
    build-depends:       base >= 4.7 && < 5
                       , snap-server
                       , snap-core
                       , snap
                       , lens
                       , bytestring
                       , text
                       , containers

Once the dependency is added, solve the dependency constraints by using the same resolver and allowing stack to update the stack.yaml file:

      stack --resolver lts-9.1 solver --update-config

3. Open src/Main.hs. We will add our source here. After the Main module header, add ...
