spago

There's plenty of interesting activity going on: The Discourse ( https://discourse.purescript.org/ ) and Slack channels ( https://fpchat-invite.herokuapp.com/ ) are active (and quite welcoming / helpful). A community fork of "PureScript by Example" is being updated / maintained, here: https://book.purescript.org/ Try PureScript is back online after a hiatus: https://try.purescript.org/ The compiler is now at version 0.13.8 with reasonably regular updates (and 0.14.0 should be on the way reasonably soon): https://github.com/purescript/purescript/releases Spago, the new(ish) package manager, is quite nice: https://github.com/purescript/spago The VSCode integration is solid. I'd say the tooling story is pretty good, over all. Work is underway to provide a package registry, since bower is being phased out: https://github.com/purescript/regist

Yes! The build tool to use is Spago (https://github.com/purescript/spago). It uses package sets which ensures all the packages you use are compatible with eachother. It is incredibly simple to use. spago init spago install halogen spago build Halogen is now at v5 which has removed a lot of the complexity and type wierdness that was around in v4. Highly recommend giving it another spin! Can't speak for how well it works on Windows though. Perhaps someone elso out there knows?
