About:
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System (GHC) is the premier compiler and interactive environment for Haskell, a statically typed functional programming language. Version 9.10 introduces advanced language features like dependent types support and improved type system capabilities. It serves as the standard toolset for building high-performance, reliable software applications.
Key Features:
  • Advanced type system with GADTs and Type Families
  • High-performance native code generator
  • Interactive GHCi environment for rapid development
  • Comprehensive package management via Cabal
  • Sophisticated optimization and profiling tools
Use Cases:
  • Developing high-performance, concurrent backend systems
  • Research in programming language theory and compiler design
  • Building financial systems requiring mathematical correctness
  • Creating domain-specific languages (DSLs)
Alternatives:
  • ghc@9.8 – Previous stable release with slightly fewer language features
  • rust – Systems language with similar performance goals but imperative syntax
  • ocaml – Alternative functional language with different type system features
