Tutorial for `stack`

[parsonsmatt]

There have been a few requests for tutorials and documentation on using stack. There's nothing on dohaskell either, so that's a good place to start.

Maybe it's not appropriate for a general stack tutorial, but I had a heck of a time trying to get everything working with ghc-mod and atom when using stack on Windows... then again, it seems like most things haskell on Windows is a bit of a crapshoot.

Michael Snoyman is working on an official guide; however, that seems a little too heavy to be something that you'd suggest as a first reading to a new Haskeller.

Yeah -- I'd like for the content here to be beginner friendly introductory materials to get people started, rather than complete/comprehensive documentation.

How about https://www.fpcomplete.com/blog/2015/08/new-in-depth-guide-stack ?

@CGenie That is (the final version of) the official guide I linked to above.

Hmm, I suppose you're right. Perhaps that would be better suited to a "Getting started with ${editor}" or "Getting started on ${OS}" type of tutorial.
