We're always happy to hear about pain points!

For example, one thing that is a friction point at my own job is knowledge of tooling for performance tuning and optimization. It's not that Haskell doesn't have this tooling, it's just not well-known.

Is there anything in particular you would need?

I think the greatest problem is documentation. I work on compilers daily. Sometimes I am forced to read directly in to Ghc’s code to just use as a developer.

Maybe we should use Ai to generate up-to-date docs that are well organized like a book, so that all devs are more easy to conquer the different tools and flows.

For example, in C++, for basic toolchains LSP, formatters, standards of formatting, guidelines for performance, do and don’ts, … are more accessible.

I know it’s partially because of the size of the community. If we find a way to make the beginners, or experienced dev from other languages easier to start writing production code. We can thrive more.
