On hadrian:
Documentation will eventually catch up as more people use hadrian but
imo things that
need to be supported are:
- Some workflows:
* make fast
Right, so we're in the process of discussing something very much related
at https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/16253. For reference, this is
what 'make fast' does:
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/Using#Skipdependencybuilding
* ./validate
I'm in the process of tweaking the validate script to have an
'--hadrian' mode. I'll document it as soon as it works, along the code
changes, in the upcoming merge request.
* make EXTRA_HC_OPTS="..."
I think you can already achieve this (but it's perhaps not documented in
'make.md'), with the flavour/user settings mechanism:
https://github.com/ghc/ghc/blob/master/hadrian/doc/user-settings.md (see
for example the different 'userArgs' definitions).
- On windows build.bat defaults to stack which I think has never
worked on my box.
Andrey? (cc'd him)
There are also a few quality of life issues like ctrl+c not canceling
the build on windows.
Which I hope will be resolved at some point but not sure if these
should be showstoppers.

One more thought I'd like to throw out in the open here:
The current Newcomers' Guide uses the current Makefile workflow, but
this is on a fast track to deprecation - but then, I doubt Hadrian has
seen enough exposure yet to use for a good beginner-friendly "Just
Works" guide. I'm leaning towards sticking with make for now, also
because existing material is already written this way; and then once
Hadrian is truly ready for prime time, we can rewrite the relevant
parts.
Thoughts?
