The Haskell Library Platform (HLP) is the name of a proposed library set
The Haskell Platform is a single, standard [[Haskell]] development environment for everyone. It offers a set of blessed libraries and tools, to save you the task of picking and choosing which core Haskell libraries to use.
that would be the minimum standard for Haskell library support on a
system.


There are now more than 500 libraries available for Haskell,  on
[http://haskell.org/platform/contents.html Learn more about the Haskell Platform ⇒]
[http://hackage.haskell.org hackage]. Choosing which libraries to
support on a distro is currently done on an ad hoc basis, with
significant variation from one distribution to another.


Some, such as Arch Linux, or Gentoo Linux, include as many libraries as

possible (typically over 400), while others have the bare minimum
required to build ghc and say, darcs and xmonad.


The Haskell community needs to provide direction and blessing to a

library set that should be available and adopted, to further encourage
Haskell use.


==Criteria==
See the [https://www.haskell.org/downloads/#platform Haskell Platform documentation] on [https://www.haskell.org haskell.org].


* GHC would build against its own core libraries, but would be generally distributed with the HLP.


* The HLP should provide good coverage for all typical tasks one might want to accomplish with the language, given library availability.
== Trouble shooting ==


* No bottlenecks: release of the HLP should be entirely independent from GHC
