    Best practices on how to be efficient with Haskell in production

    As a result I decided to write a small article that gives overview of Cabal and Stack are and also compares them, based on what I learned: https://github.com/wasp-lang/haskell-handbook/blob/master/cabal-and-stack.md .

  • Cabal

    Official upstream development repository for Cabal and cabal-install

    There's a long discussion on this issue. I think a fundamental problem is highlighted here. Just below that is a solution in the form of a preprocessor for cabal files.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • cabal-extras

    A tool suite to aid Haskell development using `cabal-install`

    Cabal also has some support for offline builds, the cabal-extras project has a bundle command to curl the dependencies into a bundle. https://github.com/phadej/cabal-extras The build artefact aren't necessarily portable across machines.

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.
