Debunking Haskell Myth: “Tooling Issue”
Ғылым және технология
Hate watching videos? Check out the complementary article, which covers the same content: dev.to/zelenya/there-is-no-to...
There is a stereotype that there exists a “Tooling issue” in Haskell. Which isn’t true.
I want to cover the current state of things and show some tooling that other language ecosystems can only dream about.

I keep having problem with versions of hls, it seems arbitrary what ghc versions are supported by some hls version and using hls with a stack project keeps giving ABI conflict errors. I still don't see how the tooling problem is gone... Not to mention formatting. I havn't found a tool that satisfies my needs, fourmolu comes closest but it is still only like a handfull of configs you can do.
hoogle really shows the true value of haskell. While, its theoretically possible in other languages, hoogle is really a result of the strictly enforced functional style. You just can't do the same thing in other languages.
And, one day, perhaps even a stable and supported GUI library and tools...
Amazing video! I'm interested in giving Haskell a serious try, and this video will help me get started. Any chance you'll do something similar for Scala in the future? I feel there's recently been a lot of drama regarding the state of things, but tbh I think the criticisms are overblown considering other more popular languages have similar issues...

Thanks. I can recommend checking out Learn Haskell by Building a Blog Generator (a free book or a video series). I might in the future, but I can't add anything interesting on that front now.
Which IDE would you recommend for Haskell, PureScript, and Elm?

I use VS Code with these (I don't need much customization or shortcuts). Alternatively, you can use any of your favorite editors as long as they support language server protocol.
Cool!
Very nice! Now when will it work on Windows? :-)

Why do you assume it doesn't? Stack has a Windows installer and can install all the other tools in turn.
Thanks for this!
Ending Haskell myths! Thanks. I love opinionated guides I wasn't aware that stack and cabal traded popularity (since I've been playing with Haskell, it's only gone from stack to cabal).

Stack actually uses Cabal, though in library form, not cabal-install. It's a bit like apt vs dpkg.
finally tsoding returns to haskell, yay 🤪
Haddock, Hoogle, Hspec, Quickcheck, Hls. Took some time to learn this tooling, but oh boy is it smooth, and what about ghtui that allows you to have haskell in lab machines without root access ;)
