This language has some of the worst tooling I&#x27;ve ever encountered in my life.<p>I could go on and write you novels about it, and if someone really wants to know I can provide a massively detailed, exhaustive list with logs, screenshots, Github issues, etc.<p>But sweet jesus, you&#x27;d think in 2021 a basic tenet of a language would be:<p><pre><code> &quot;I want autocomplete + hover-docs to work on a project which has +50 dependency libraries and several hundred files.&quot; </code></pre> (Reliably, without segfaulting every few minutes or eating up massive amounts of resources).<p>The language may be the best thing since sliced bread, but the tooling&#x2F;ecosystem and authorship process is absolutely the worst thing I&#x27;ve ever touched.<p>Here&#x27;s a particularly funny one:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;user-images.githubusercontent.com&#x2F;26604994&#x2F;139553801-72ed6dec-5e78-4af9-b3b5-a158bc69e457.png" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;user-images.githubusercontent.com&#x2F;26604994&#x2F;139553801...</a><p>Even &quot;experimental&quot; languages like Nim and Zig had a more reliable and easier to use tooling and IDE integration than Haskell did (for me), despite Haskell being ~31 years old.
