The Wiki on Haskell IDEs seems to be out of date. It mentions KDevelop, which no longer has any references to Haskell on its site, and to FPeclipse which was orphaned in 2015. I find Leksah rather cumbersome to use/learn (for students), and it is still a bit hard to convince them after Netbeans & Eclipse to fall back to Vi and DOS command windows. :)

The sad state is that updating it means deleting a lot of obsolete entries but there is no new entry to add (apart from Haskell for Mac, http://haskellformac.com/ ) The silver lining is that you are not missing out on any recent development. If you have heard of Leksah and Haskell for Mac, you have already known it all. (Wouldn't it be nice if Apple permitted us to run MacOS in VirtualBox on Windows and Linux?)
If you are a Teacher, give Leksah a second opportunity.
It is the only IDE AFAIK that integrates the Haskell debugger. It is
invaluable for teaching how expressions are executed lazily. You can
observer graphically how the execution goes back and forth executing lazily
at the finest level
