• Run nix-shell
• Run cabal update && cabal build all

The recommended IDE for any NeoHaskell project is Visual Studio Code.

• cd NeoHaskell && code .

Install the recommended extensions

When opening the project for the first time, you will be prompted to install the recommended extensions, install them.

Code Formatting

This project uses the fourmolu formatter for consistent Haskell code styling. When using VS Code with the recommended extensions:
