#Haskell (ghc-8.10.1) / #Cabal 3.2 / #Xmonad 0.15 Tip of the day: cabal install -z --lib --package-env=$HOME/.xmonad/ --allow-newer=setlocale-1.0.0.9:base xmonad xmonad-contrib This will create a CWD-style GHC pkg-env file which will be picked up by `xmonad --recompile` &al.

I'd like to plug a friendly reminder that you can get convenient .deb packages for brand new #Haskell GHC 8.8.3 and Cabal 3.2 releases built appositely for your specific #Debian and #Ubuntu releases from our Apt repositories; see downloads.haskell.org/debian… for more details!

IMO @_osa1 makes a good case that the overall cost&issues of adding seemingly neat syntax variations to the language extends far beyond an innocent looking 10-line patch (whose OP might not even be involved w #haskell anymore) and isn't taken srsly enough osa1.net/posts/2020-01-22-no…

Pleased to say that three and a half months later, we have officially switched to using `cabal-install` instead of `stack` at @HasuraHQ! 🎉 github.com/hasura/graphql-en…

Switch from `stack` to `cabal-install` for building server code by jberryman · Pull Request #3558 ·...

See #3280 The idea here is to start the process of moving away from stack (potentially), but making this move official if we decie to, will require more coordination (moving CI, dev.sh and docs all...

I’ve been having a crisis of faith in `stack` recently. The UX for beginners is still way better than `cabal-install`, but recent changes have burned me… the removal of `stack solver` sucks, `stack exec` is broken with no workaround, and as of 2.x you can’t uninstall packages!

Use @chocolateynuget for ghc on windows. Phyx- does an amazing job of packaging and fixing it. @me_coot can attest to the ease of ghc with choco.

Haskell's cabal has received an enormous amount of shite over the years so I just wanted to say that version 3.0 is really really good and my install/build times are much faster then with previous setup (stack)

Here's a small neat showcase for tables in #Haddock from the recently released hackage.haskell.org/package/… #Haskell library (i.e. markup works inside table cells!); I've also made a 2nd screenshot to show off the new default Hackage-aligned theme in Haddock 2.23 (i.e. GHC 8.8.1)

Tamar Christina has been busy improving the UX for Windows users and now you can finally "set up a 100% working #Haskell environment using a single #chocolatey command" while benefiting from proper system packagement tooling: choco install haskell-dev hub.zhox.com/posts/introduci…

The easiest way to setup a Haskell environment on Windows

What is chocolatey Windows has had quite a push lately to provide script-able ways to install packages. One such attempt that has gained quite a lot of traction is Chocolatey (https://chocolatey.or...

Here's an interesting new blogpost by Tamar Christina explaining in great details how he managed to overcame Windows' 260-char PATH_MAX limitation for the benefit of #Haskell GHC/Cabal users: hub.zhox.com/posts/bypassing…

Bypassing MAX_PATH Limit with GHC on Windows

TL;DR: GHC 8.10+ Will ship with a custom GCC+Binutils bindist that will remove the MAX_PATH limitation to files. The GHC binaries themselves must still be in installed in a path shorter than MAX_PA...
