Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Would anyone be interested in hoot: A cabal wrapper for haskell based on Cargo?
Also, there's already a cabal RFC to support toml: https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/7548

On the verge of giving up learning Haskell because of the terrible tooling.
Cabal has a lot of dark corners once you stray from the happy path. Just checked and I'm currently subscribed to 37 threads on the issue tracker, and I'm not a maintainer. A lot of these are related to lesser-used features like cabal scripts, environment files and doctests (though I think all of these things would used more if they were more reliable), but there's also plenty of stupid stuff like: - https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/3313 - https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/8527 - https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/8391 - https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/7789 - https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/6888 - https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/6999 - https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/5271

Problems installing hindent witch haskell tool stack on windows 10
Given that Mike Pilgrim (the Stack maintainer) is on Windows, and Cabal has issues on Windows, I think it might be easier to get Windows specific fixes merged in Stack.

Help figuring out output from Cabal resolver
The error message is not too helpful. This is the target of a long-standing ticket: https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/7993 Your help would be very welcome.

There is No “Tooling Issue” in Haskell
By the way, there are some open issues for the command to add a package in Cabal.

Trying to figure out cabal dependency management
Reported this as a bug in cabal.

JavaScript backend merged into GHC | IOG Engineering
We definitely plan to have benchmarks once we start working on performance. We haven't started yet because there were more urgent tasks. For example: ensuring that the testsuite runs on CI with the JS backend (should be completed this week or the next), ensuring that the toolchain works properly (we're writing a tutorial and we've found new bugs, e.g. yesterday I've fixed the support for js-sources in Cabal https://github.com/haskell/cabal/pull/8636), adding TH support...

Leaving Haskell Behind
Ah, didn't run into this issue, as I don't use vscode.
Apparently there is some work being done to improve the stack <> hls experience, but I wouldn't know how it's going and when it's being delivered: https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/6154

Help, i get this error when executing the command "xmonad"
this is it: # This file was automatically generated by 'stack init' # # Some commonly used options have been documented as comments in this file. # For advanced use and comprehensive documentation of the format, please see: # https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/yaml\_configuration/ # Resolver to choose a 'specific' stackage snapshot or a compiler version. # A snapshot resolver dictates the compiler version and the set of packages # to be used for project dependencies. For example: # # resolver: lts-3.5 # resolver: nightly-2015-09-21 # resolver: ghc-7.10.2 # # The location of a snapshot can be provided as a file or url. Stack assumes # a snapshot provided as a file might change, whereas a url resource does not. # # resolver: ./custom-snapshot.yaml # resolver: https://example.com/snapshots/2018-01-01.yaml resolver: url: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/commercialhaskell/stackage-snapshots/master/lts/20/23.yaml # User packages to be built. # Various formats can be used as shown in the example below. # # packages: # - some-directory # - https://example.com/foo/bar/baz-0.0.2.tar.gz # subdirs: # - auto-update # - wai packages: - xmonad - xmonad-contrib # Dependency packages to be pulled from upstream that are not in the resolver. # These entries can reference officially published versions as well as # forks / in-progress versions pinned to a git hash.

ANN: stack-2.11.1
Fix incorrect warning if allow-newer-deps are specified but allow-newer is false. See #6068.

[ANN] First release candidate for stack-2.11.1
You can download binaries for this pre-release from: Release rc/v2.11.0.1 (release candidate) · commercialhaskell/stack · GitHub .

PEP 582 rejected - consensus among the community needed
Fair enough! Thanks for the suggestion, then. In fact, the non-Python language I develop most in (Haskell, with the Stack package manager) has exactly that behaviour as a default: new packages are installed to a sandboxed local directory, and it takes an explicit request to install something globally. (And even then, you can switch between different global "known good configurations" of package versions which work well together – a pretty handy feature.)

How to suppress warnings from external packages?
Opened a ticket on GitHub.

ANN: stack-2.9.3
In YAML configuration files, the hackage-security key of the package-index key or the package-indices item can be omitted, and the Hackage Security configuration for the item will default to that for the official Hackage server. See #5870.

`Stack build` fails with `gcc' failed in phase `Assembler'
FYI this was solved in here: https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5958
-
[ANN] First release candidate for stack-2.9.3
Yes, that is correct. Stack's allow-newer: true configuration has always actually meant 'ignore bounds'. However, the author of the allow-newer-deps development has in mind a further development that will introduce an actual ignore-bounds key with the same expressive syntax that is used by Cabal. This is discussed at Stack #5910.
