Re: [Haskell-cafe] Future of lucid

That's an interesting idea, Simon. Thanks. On Wed, Jun 10, 2020, at 2:55 PM, Simon Jakobi wrote:

That's good to hear, Chris!

Can I suggest to include a version of this explanation in the README?

Maybe you could also suggest that people post their questions on SO using the haskell-lucid tag: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/haskell-lucid

Cheers! Simon

Hi Simon,

I am still maintaining and actively using the package. Architecture-wise, nothing substantial has changed in the 6 years since its release. Just small additions. This package pretty much maintains itself. PRs come and go.

In fact, any kind of overhauls or user-facing design changes at this stage would cause disruption and I would encourage that to be achieved in a separate package with a new name. In review, I'm very happy with Lucid's design and plan to maintain it long-term into the future for as long as HTML is relevant.

However, I am providing no Q&A or "tech support". Having an issue tracker would say otherwise.

Oleg is also a maintainer.

Cheers,

Chris

Hi!

I recently noticed that the issue tracker for the lucid package at

https://github.com/chrisdone/lucid

has been disabled. Does this have any implications for the future maintenance of the package? Is anyone still committed to maintaining the package?

(I've CC'd Oleg who made the most recent commit to the repo.)

The context for my question is that we'd like to use lucid for the Dhall documentation generator that is being developed as a part of this year's GSoC.

Thanks! Simon
