Making Haskell predictable, stable, and actually fun to use in production! 🚀
Ever had GHC break your build on a Friday afternoon? Or spent hours debugging why your perfectly fine code stopped compiling after a toolchain update? Yeah, we've been there too. That's why we're building Stable Haskell – because life's too short for compiler surprises!
Stable Haskell is like having that super experienced Haskell dev on your team who always knows how to fix the weird GHC issues. Except it's a whole distribution, and it never takes vacation days. 😄
We're bringing you:
- 🎪 No More Surprise Parties: Predictable releases that won't break your builds
- 🛡️ Battle-Tested Stability: LTS releases that actually mean Long-Term Support
- 🦸 GHC Wizards on Speed Dial: Get help from the folks who literally build GHC
Plot twist: We're not just random Haskell enthusiasts (though we are enthusiastic!). Our team includes the actual humans who built:
- 🔢 GHC's Native Bignum Backend – Making those integers go brrr
- 🦾 AArch64 Native Code Generator – ARM never looked so good
- 🌐 JavaScript Backend in GHC – Because sometimes you need Haskell in your browser
- 📦 GHCup – The installer that actually works™
- 🏗️ haskell.nix – Reproducible builds that don't make you cry
- 🎯 Cross-Compilation Magic – Windows, iOS, Android? We got you!
- 🔗 GHC's In-Memory Loader & Linker – The deep magic stuff
- 🚀 And tons more cool internals!
Plus, we're huge believers in giving back – we upstream our fixes to GHC and Cabal because a rising tide lifts all lambdas! 🌊
- Less Yak Shaving: Spend time writing code, not fighting your toolchain
- Ship Faster: Stable tools = happy developers = features shipped on time
- Sleep Better: Your production Haskell apps won't randomly break at 3 AM
We're building a community of Haskellers who value stability AND innovation. Join us:

Because we believe in the philosophy: Slow and steady wins the race! Our mascot represents reliability, longevity, and the wisdom to know that sometimes moving carefully is the fastest way forward. Plus, turtles are adorable. 🐢💚
P.S. We're putting our money where our mouth is – a portion of proceeds goes to the Haskell Foundation because we love this community! ❤️
