markdown-unlit VS hoogle

It is possible to use Markdown as the markup in Literate Haskell files, with markdown-unlit. Unfortunately the experience isn't great: GitHub will only render the Markdown if the file is named *.md (or is a *.md symlink to the *.lhs file), and the Markdown-flavored *.lhs doesn't get properly syntax highlighted in any tool. At this point my README.md uses it, but nothing else in my repos.

Dimensions behave somewhat like a "type system" for math. These dimensional-analysis tricks act like the trick you see in Haskell sometimes, where you can easily guess an implementation of an expression once you know it's type (or e.g. search by type signature https://hoogle.haskell.org/ )

Haskell Spotlight makes vscode a client for hoogle. It isn't too different than jumping into your browser and type https://hoogle.haskell.org/. The main advantage is that you have everything in one place

https://hackage.haskell.org/package/base and https://hoogle.haskell.org are automatically up to date and better searchable than almost any other reference of any other programming language. maintaining a redundant reference that needs to be kept up to date manually is simply stupid.

Ideally like this: https://zio.dev/reference/#concurrency

Or this: https://hoogle.haskell.org/?hoogle=fork

And yeah I get it, it's hard to Google for punctuation operators in languages because it doesn't give useful search results (but not impossible, for example, Haskell has a search engine for documentation that handles symbols/punctuation).

{ "customLocalFormatters.formatters": [ { "command": "make format", "languages": ["haskell"] } ], "emeraldwalk.runonsave": { "commands": [ { "match": "*.hs", "isAsync": true, "cmd": "make retag retag_file=${file}" } ] }, "ghcid.command": "make ghcid", "goto-documentation.customDocs": { "hs": "https://hoogle.haskell.org/?hoogle=${query}" } }

You had a look at Hoogle?

For some type signatures there is (are) only one (or only a few) meaningful implementation(s).
