These sort of umbrella resources help create a sense of cohesiveness in the community, making it more welcoming to newcomers. #Haskell is more popular, but it could still learn from how much #PureScript's community efforts have achieved in the past 2-3 years.

@haskman I don't get it... For packages we have Hackage (and Flora.pm). For short links(?). Why have a centralized repo of that?

@dpwiz It's not just for purescript packages. It's a place to get authoritative urls for all sorts of community resources. A good example is on the page itself, purescri.pt/registry leads to the github repo for the new purescript registry.

@haskman The registry doesn't have it's own domain?.. okay, maybe it doesn't. So, what would be a good example for Haskell?

@dpwiz "ghc", "stack", "cabal", "hls", "ghcid", "intero"? "rwh", "haskellbook", "lyah"? Do you see the possibilities now?

Follow

@haskman Out of the provided examples [ghc] and [cabal] are up. I think I would like `stack` in there too.
Also present: [ghcup]... And the rest of the [stuff] that is already there.

* hls - looks linkable
* ghcid - okay, some people are using it.
* intero - dead?..
* the books.... get outdated rather quickly. and some of them are commercial products. I wouldn't champion those.

Okay, let's go and make PRs now.

[ghc]: haskell.org/ghc/
[cabal]: haskell.org/cabal/
[ghcup]: haskell.org/ghcup/
[stuff]: github.com/haskell-infra/www.h
