Haskell Workshop - First steps, setting up your environment

Presenter: Diogo Biazus.

Are you new to Haskell and still wonder how to get a productive development environment in place? Do you have Haskell experience, and love to share information about your favourite tools, editor plugins and project structure? Are you still struggling with Cabal sandboxes?

If your answer is yes to any of these questions come to this workshop!

Bring your notebook and by the end of the night you will have a development environment using stack ( https://www.stackage.org ) and Atom/Spacemacs.

Besides the basic tooling we also will discuss best practices, GHC extensions, Haddock documentation, and how to structure your project files.

Perfect workshop for the first contact with the language to get past all that boilerplate among fellow developers and pizza.
