The _real_ problem is that Pandoc is written in Haskell.
- wyager 12y agoIn what way is that a problem? Haskell is certainly a reasonable choice for a markup transpiler.
- Dewie 12y agoLooking beyond the language itself; a part of the problem was having to wrestle with Haskell's cabal. Now the question is whether that poison is worse than other language's package managers (or kind-of-package managers).
- cirosantilli 12y agoI agree, Haskell is a great language, but its ecosystem has much less support than C. Luckily for us Atwood made jgm write CommonMark in C.
