Haskell notebook treating reactivity as first-class. Solves real GHCi/IHaskell pain points elegantly.

Strengths
  • Reactive cell dependency tracking with stable evaluation order is a genuine architectural win
  • GHCi subprocess approach sidesteps version hell between IHaskell and GHC—simpler, more correct
  • Targets unmet UX gaps in IHaskell: package install-in-cell, template Haskell, multi-line functions
Weaknesses
  • Ultra-niche audience: functional programmers doing literate computing (IHaskell already serves this)
  • No comparison with existing notebook ecosystems (Jupyter, Pluto.jl) in the doc—unclear differentiation
Category
