This packages provides lightweight nix shells for general haskell development with cabal
.
The below matrix shows how well a particular GHC version is supported. Legend:
- 🌕: Support exists with good caching.
- 🌓: Support exists with poor caching.
- 🌑: Support does not exist.
In particular:
- Caching: A 🌕 means that the GHC shell has fast caching for itself. A 🌓 means that the bare GHC shell has poor caching.
- HLS: If the haskell-language-server is supported.
- Other Tools: A 🌕 means that all (non-HLS) tools are supported with good caching. A 🌓 means that at least one tool has poor caching, and 🌑 means that at least one tool is not supported.
GHC versions that support all tools and have fast caching are bolded. Precise information can be found in the source: nix/ghc_map.nix. In the interest of brevity, only the latest 3 major versions are listed. Older versions are listed in the collapsed table below.
GHC | Caching | HLS | Other Tools |

Attr: default
Description: Nix shell for general haskell development. Most packages can use this shell. Includes cabal
and ghc
. Note that there is no guarantee every dev tool will work with every ghcVers
. In particular, there will often be a lag time before the latest GHCs are fully supported.
The default ghc is the latest version that works with every tool and has decent nix caching.
