"DO NOT INSTALL HASKELL PLATFORM"

crcdng opened this issue · 2 comments

I guess this is one stumbling block confusing people who get into Haskell, before they even get into Haskell. Haskell.org is the canonical source to get Haskell, offering 3 different options for the installation. A beginner has no way to understand or make an informed decision what they should do. I would say most other online sources do recommend or point to the platfom variant.

So if you write something like this, I would recommend to drop the capital case (which sounds intimidating) and make sure to explain the reason behind the recommendation.

ok, makes sense.
