On the verge of giving up learning Haskell because of the terrible tooling.

1. simple-haskell-project

   1 2 16 4.8 Shell

   A convenient script that generates a fully decked haskell project in a matter of seconds!

   

2. InfluxDB

   www.influxdata.com featured

   InfluxDB – Built for High-Performance Time Series Workloads. InfluxDB 3 OSS is now GA. Transform, enrich, and act on time series data directly in the database. Automate critical tasks and eliminate the need to move data externally. Download now.

   

3. haskell-template

   2 9 250 7.9 Nix

   Haskell project template using Nix + Flakes + VSCode (HLS)

   

   I am a Haskell newbie myself. Found nix flakes and https://github.com/srid/haskell-template really nice to start with (of course some learning curve is unavoidable).

4. sccache

   3 74 6,361 8.9 Rust

   Sccache is a ccache-like tool. It is used as a compiler wrapper and avoids compilation when possible. Sccache has the capability to utilize caching in remote storage environments, including various cloud storage options, or alternatively, in local storage.

   

   That's definitely not my experience. Never had any issue running Rust on Windows. You just download and run rustup-init.exe, then updating is simply a matter of rustup update. Documentation generation is built in (cargo doc) and just a case of annotating code with triple-/ markdown comments and then running that command. sccache works fine for me (just need to set RUSTC_WRAPPER=/path/to/sccache). And the error messages from rustc are by far the best of any compiler I've used. Not sure how they're unhelpful, they tend to explain step-by-step what the problem is and how to fix it.

5. template-haskell

   4 3 9 10.0 Haskell

   The Haskell template, configured for Gitpod (www.gitpod.io) to give you pre-built, ephemeral development environments in the cloud.

   

   The best experience I've had so far is just to click on the "Open in Gitpod" link here: https://github.com/gitpod-samples/template-haskell. You get VS Code in your browser with a working Haskell environment and proper linux shell. You need a github/gitlab account and a stable internet connection.

6. Cabal

   5 84 1,679 9.8 Haskell

   Official upstream development repository for Cabal and cabal-install

   

   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
