The Haskell Platform is a collection of software packages, tools and libraries that create a common platform for using and developing applications in Haskell. With the Haskell Platform, Haskell follows the same principle as Python: "Batteries included".
The Haskell Platform aims to unify Haskell development tools into a single package, consisting of a compiler, compiling tools and many standard libraries, therefore making it easier to develop and deploy full-featured Haskell-driven applications.
Currently it consists of:
It is available for Ubuntu,Arch Linux,FreeBSD,Gentoo Linux (x86-64 and x86),Fedora,Debian (stable) and NixOS. One-click installers exist for OS X (only Intel) and Microsoft Windows.
Originally, the Haskell Platform aimed at a 6-months release cycle. Starting with 7.10.2, it will follow the release cycle of GHC and use the same version numbering scheme.
