Similar in spirit (but not so introductory and specific to mechanics): Structure and Interpretation of Classical Mechanics, by Sussman and Wisdom. Whole book available online here: https://mitpress.mit.edu/sites/default/files/titles/content/... .

(SICM uses Scheme -- of course! -- where this course uses Haskell. SICM is cited in the paper linked by agumonkey as an influence on the approach taken in this course.)

SICM also goes into way more physics than this course page does. Lagrangian / Hamiltonian mechanics, canonical transformations leading to symplectic integration, phase spaces, and perturbation theory.

SICM is indeed mentioned in the pdf references (I linked it below)
