• Show HN: Name Checker – check your project name accross many sites
  1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 1 Sep 2023

  Very cool! Is this open-source? It would be cool to add a few sources to this (like https://hackage.haskell.org).

• `cabal update` stuck here forever.
  1 project | /r/haskell | 22 May 2023

  Selected mirror http://hackage.haskell.org/

• Haskell ecosystem questions.
  5 projects | /r/haskell | 17 Mar 2023

  3. https://hackage.haskell.org is the primary place

• Why are haskell applications so obscure?
  7 projects | /r/haskell | 10 Jan 2023

  I used to see pandoc described as a "virus that makes people want to install Haskell", but I think someone must've figured out binary distribution.

• Comparing ZIO to Haskell effects libraries like Polysemy?
  3 projects | /r/scala | 25 Aug 2022

  The closest analogue to ZIO is probably the RIO monad + Has* type classes from https://hackage.haskell.org . /package/rio . (But ZIO is a bit richer with the typed error channel.)

• Just released: cabal 3.8.1.0
  4 projects | /r/haskell | 11 Aug 2022

  Not yet, first hackage-server has to be updated to Cabal-3.8.1.0, see this hackage-server ticket

• What's the story with organizing a cental python docs hub?
  3 projects | /r/Python | 5 Aug 2022

  So I was working on this tool pysearch.com for doing deep semantic searches of python docs by program analysis inferred functionality when I noticed that every library's docs seem to be in a different format hosted in a different source. This would be fine if there was also a standard format hub for all the libraries on pypi or something, but it looks like even readthedocs doesn't contain everything. I find this a bit odd given the existence of tools like pydoc for doing something like this locally. Originally, I was hoping to find something like hackage for haskell, as I was hoping to build a natural language version of hoogle. In the meantime I've gotten pysearch to work by setting up custom rules for each doc, but this is kinda unsustainable.

• Monthly Hask Anything (March 2022)
  5 projects | /r/haskell | 2 Mar 2022

  See https://github.com/haskell/hackage-server/issues/997.

• Haskell compiled onto LLVM increase performance?
  4 projects | /r/haskell | 2 Nov 2021

  The other source of haskell documentation is hackage, which features both libraries and higher-level GHC modules. Using hoogle (!hoogle or !hgl in DDG), you can search these docs by module name, function name, or even type signature.
