  • fakedata-example

    As a quick fix I forked fakedata in order to avoid getDataFileName and instead point it explicitly to the files on disk.

  • wasp

    The fastest way to develop full-stack web apps with React & Node.js.

    Here is our install script https://github.com/wasp-lang/wasp/blob/master/waspc/tools/install.sh#L122 -> you can see in this line how we create this script and what it contains.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • Cabal

    Official upstream development repository for Cabal and cabal-install

    Unfortunately I don't think this stuff is documented: https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/5997

  • hyphenation

    Knuth-Liang Hyphenation for Haskell based on TeX hyphenation files

    As someone else mentioned, the file-embed package is a way to avoid this problem from the library author's perspective. Using it could be guarded behind a flag, as it is for the hyphenation package: https://github.com/ekmett/hyphenation/pull/4

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
