You are not wrong on that level, i have been slowly writing a language in Rust anc all these point are deeply felt.

And yet... The Rust ecosystem win. Easily. For a simple reason.

Salsa. Oh and also clap. Lsp bindings. Ungrammar. Miette. Clap. Parsers. Etc

At every level the Rust packages are far better and allow to drastically reduce the cost of building this stuff.

Haskell has equivalents to all of those libraries, and much more. And they are probably easier to use and more powerful.

I spent 6 months exploring the Haskell ecosystem for these. The answer is no.

They are nowhere as easy. At the very least because their documentation is usually non existent or non comprehensible.

Can you link some of those libraries? I’ve always found it harder to find well-maintained libraries that solve compiler problems in Haskell as opposed to Rust.
