Stack is a tool to build projects and manage their dependencies for the programming language Haskell. It uses the Cabal library but with a curated version of the Hackage software repository named Stackage.[3][4]

Stack competes against Cabal's binary file cabal-install[5] and has been created as a result of the overall criticism about dependency problems.[6] However, it does not provide its own package format, but uses extant *.cabal files and complements projects with an added stack.yaml file.

Asked if improvements to package management would make a difference to their future choice of Haskell for a project, 38% said it would be "crucial" and a further 29% said it would be "important". Comments connected cabal with words like hell, pain, awful, sucks, frustrating, and hideous. Only this topic showed such grave dissatisfaction.
