Useful Tools

  • Hoogle
    • Hoogle is a Haskell API search engine, which allows you to search the Haskell libraries on Stackage by either function name, or by approximate type signature.
  • Hayoo
    • Hayoo: The Hayoo! search engine for Haskell API search on hackage
  • Hackage and Stackage
  • Haskell reverse dependency package search
    • Find out if the hackage package you want to use is widely used or not
