[RFC] Generate Cabal files from TOML
I implemented a prototype for using TOML to generate Cabal files. It's implemented enough to generate its own cabal file from package.toml. Any feedback would be appreciated here!

Haskell as a first timer - Am I missing something ?
The yaml you are talking about is part of a tool called hpack. This tool can be used on it's own (and with cabal-install as such), it just so happens that stack has it's own internal copy of it and runs it automatically whenever it finds a package.yaml.

Using External Pacakges With Cabal
I know this sounds more complicated at first glance, but I personally would suggest using hpack to generate cabal files from a package.yaml instead of directly editing your-project.cabal.
