> Granted, the tooling is sh*t.

I hear this a lot, but am curious about two things: (a) which bit(s) of the toolchain are you thinking about specifically -- I know HLS can be quite janky but I haven't really been blocked by any tooling problems myself; (b) have you done much Haskell in production recently -- i.e. is this scar tissue from some ago or have you tried the toolchain recently and still found it to be lacking?

Everytime I use cabal and/or stack, it gives me a wall of errors and i just reinstall everyrhing all the time.

And if you share stack transcripts I’ll look into those for you.

I’ve experienced this too, the tools can certainly be improved, but also a little more understanding of what they do and how to interpret their error messages could help you (I am guessing).

If you share a transcript from a cabal session I'll look into this for you.
