If you’re interested in learning Agda, you might want to check out Conor McBride’s courses, given at the University of Cambridge: “Introduction to dependently typed programming using Agda”, 2011: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~ok259/agda-course/ Course materials: https://github.com/mietek/agda-introduction “Dependently typed metaprogramming (in Agda)”, 2013: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~ok259/agda-course-13/ Course materials: https://github.com/pigworker/MetaprogAgda

I'd say the whole game of eDSL creation is an act of metaprogramming. There are examples littered everywhere in the Haskell world—though rarely do syntax abstractions like macros get used. This is because it's relatively easy to embed a natural style program in a monad or applicative functor, access the syntax, and compile it.
