• Using xmonad-testing as lib

  All is well and works properly. Now, however, I would like to switch to the git version of Xmonad by using xmonad-testing. For that I cloned the repo, switched both xmonad & xmonad-contrib branches to master and compiled executable. First of all, if I run the executable with `--version`, I get '0.15', that seems to me not correct. Shouldn't it be 0.16, even though it is not released yet? Second, I am not sure whether I need to somehow install the Git versions as libraries to be able to use new features and to get Vim with haskell-language-server recognize the new features. My configuration is in `~/.xmonad`. I think if I copy the config to the directory where the cloned repos are, it (using the new features) will work...

  Depending on whether you want to use stack or cabal, there is xmonad-testing, which is a repository that solely exists to show users how to do this! Under build-scripts you can find examples for both stack and cabal (be sure to read the readme for how to use these). If you want to use cabal 3.4 then mind geekosaur's pr for things to work smoothly with the new- style commands which are now the default.
