# Installing Haskell
# What are Haskell, GHC, and Cabal?
## DO NOT INSTALL HASKELL PLATFORM
Haskell is a programming language as laid out in the reports, most recent one
being in 2010. The report is available as the
[onlinereport](http://www.haskell.org/onlinereport/haskell2010/).
## GHC
[GHC](http://www.haskell.org/ghc/) is the most popular way to work in the
Haskell language. It includes a compiler, REPL (interpreter), package
management, and other things besides.
## Cabal
[Cabal](https://www.haskell.org/cabal/download.html) does project management and
dependency resolution. It's how you'll install projects, typically into their
own sandbox.
Cabal is equivalent to Ruby's Bundler, Python's pip, Node's NPM, Maven, etc. GHC
manages packaging itself, Cabal chooses what versions to install.
# Getting set-up
See [the install instructions](install.md) for how to get GHC & Cabal installed.
Instead of following the instructions on Haskell.org, See [the install instructions](install.md) for how to get GHC & Cabal installed.
