flipstone/stack repository overview

⁠Usage

This image provides stack installed in Debian stretch linux. The intended use is as a source of the stack tool for Haskell projects where the development environment is managed with Docker. It is highly recommended to keep your stack-root and stack-work directories in Docker volumes to maximize compilation speed.

⁠stack-root Location

This image sets the STACK_ROOT environment variable to /stack-root to simplify and standardize the location to mount a volume to hold the stack root.
