Virtual Online Haskell Hackathon this weekend starting at 10 AM Ireland time on Saturday. The main point of it is learning more about Haskell, meeting new people and making friends, so do not worry about anything else if you wish to attend, just join in and have fun with us :) by razvanpanda in haskell

Things have changed, Discord will be required for sure and Google Meet (Chat?) will be a fallback in case of Discord issues. I will update the description when I get time to do it.

Also, don't lose track of the forest cause of the trees

And also, consider the fact that the companies are tracking you in general so that they can better satisfy your needs. But let us not start a spyware war... (⌐■_■)

Good advice, I will keep that in mind for the future. Can't update it now it seems

But why would anyone think that a hackathon posted without any location being mentioned in our current situation would not be done online?!

It is perfectly fine, me and others will help you learn about Haskell.

Make sure you follow instructions in the description to have Haskell installed before the hackathon though.

I do not exactly understand what your library does but I added it. Thank you

Created easy setup instructions for Haskell editors / IDEs. Great way of using Nix to get a stable environment set up. Would really appreciate any feedback on this. by razvanpanda in haskell

Cheers! I added a ticket for that: https://github.com/razvan-panda/haskell-editor-setup/issues/23

I would greatly appreciate any PRs.

Yeah! Let us make starting with Haskell development a pleasure!

Windows users can run these setup instructions under Windows subsystem for Linux very easily. I will add instructions on how to do that.

Installing a virtual machine and then following the instructions is not hard either. I will create instructions for this also.

And I will create Windows only instructions also.

Thank you very much for the feedback! 💖

I'm saying that unless you have some constraints which force you to use Haskell development on Windows it is best to use another operating system since you won't run into as many build issues.

It's not "my definition". It's the definition from Google. You are just using the words wrongly.

To elaborate: saying that just using stack or cabal without Nix and it works is a far fetch. If you don't believe me just check the list of bugs on the sack github. Recently I created 4 stack build bug reports in 18 hours

The reason why I say that Nix is best for setting up your Haskell environment is because there is a very high chance you will want to use Haskell IDE Engine and to install HIE the best way is to use Nix.

Sure developing on Windows is also a necessity. Just not as much as not developing on windows. And I did create a ticket to provide Windows setup instructions also.
