`haskell.nix` can automatically translate your Cabal or Stack project and
its dependencies into Nix code.

## Related repos

The `haskell.nix` repository contains the runtime system for building
Haskell packages in Nix. It depends on other repos, which are:

- [`nix-tools`](https://github.com/input-output-hk/nix-tools) — provides the programs for generating Nix expressions from  Haskell projects.

- [`hackage.nix`](https://github.com/input-output-hk/hackage.nix) — the latest contents of the [Hackage](https://hackage.haskell.org/) databases, converted to Nix expressions.

- [`stackage.nix`](https://github.com/input-output-hk/stackage.nix) — all of the [Stackage](https://www.stackage.org/) snapshots, converted to Nix expressions.
