A new project

Click the above "Open in Gitpod" button to start a new workspace. Once you're ready to push your first code changes, Gitpod will guide you to fork this project so you own it.

An existing project

If you have an existing project and you want to create a gitpod environment for it, you need to follow and take into account these considerations.

• This repo's Dockerfile completely overwrites the cabal and stack files when building the container. This means, that if you simply copy-paste the .gitpod.Dockerfile, your cabal/stack files will disappear. Follow the instructions within .gitpod.Dockerfile to change this behaviour.
• This repo uses ghcup to install all the tooling. Alternative installation isn't recommended.
• If you are using stack it is highly recommended to disallow it from installing ghc on its own. Otherwise, you'll encounter problems when integrating with haskell-language-protocol. To configure stack properly, run the following:
  • stack config set install-ghc --global false
  • stack config set system-ghc --global true
