GHCIDE is the recommended [1] tool supporting a wide range of editors (Vim, Emacs, VSCode etc. [2]), crucial for Haskell development. Recently, there are many interest in its development, and has joined forces [3] with others to build haskell-language server (hls) [4], so Debian could provide a single package hls (hls contains ghcide internally). Hls provides officially built binaries in their Github Release page. It has more functionality and better support than older haskell development packages such as happy, hlint, ghc-mod etc. [1] https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/wikis/spacemacs#historical [2] https://github.com/digital-asset/ghcide [3] https://neilmitchell.blogspot.com/2020/01/one-haskell-ide-to-rule-them-all.html [4] https://github.com/haskell/haskell-ide-engine/issues/1416
