  • ghc-proposals

    Proposed compiler and language changes for GHC and GHC/Haskell

    Discussion in GHC Proposals: https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/417

  • InfluxDB

    Access the most powerful time series database as a service. Ingest, store, & analyze all types of time series data in a fully-managed, purpose-built database. Keep data forever with low-cost storage and superior data compression.

  • stackage

    Stable Haskell package sets: vetted consistent packages from Hackage

    On the contrary, I think this is standard practice for packages which are part of stackage. When stackage nightly switches to a new version of ghc, all the packages which are incompatible with the new ghc are dropped from nightly. My understanding is that maintainers are then expected to fix their packages, at which point more and more packages are included in the nightly snapshot. The next lts to include that version of ghc is only released later, once most packages have been added back, so unlike ghc users who diligently upgrade to the latest ghc, stackage users who diligently upgrade the latest lts snapshot shouldn't see a big drop in the number of compatible packages.

  • typelevel-rewrite-rules

    rewrite rules for type-level equalities

    Until then, I guess we can simply poll. Here's a GitHub Action I wrote today which checks if the latest report for a given package includes a failure: https://github.com/gelisam/typelevel-rewrite-rules/blob/main/.github/workflows/check-hackage-matrix.yml

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.
