So what exactly do you have to run in rosetta -> ghcup, during installation, or cabal later when building the project, or both?

You need to install ghcup and then I suppose also run cabal with rosetta (installing ghcup in m1 mode and then trying to run it or cabal didn't work)

This uses rosetta for the current terminal session?

Are we ok with doing this for all of the shells that IntelliJ runs? Because this will then be also used when you are not dealing with Haskell, right? Same question for vscode below.

This sets it per project (so only in this folder -> .idea is the config for it) and same for vscode (I suggested creating the .vscode/settings.json to make it local)

@Zeko369 could you enrich the docs with this info that I asked about in comments? So provide a bit more context of which session / project these commands affect, also probably mention .vscode/settings.json . I think we are good then! |
