**What do you like best about Cabal?**

Multiple features, great for packaging and distributing in a portable way. It is a very helpful tool that helps to build and organize the Haskell libraries.

**What do you dislike about Cabal?**

Not intuitive, takes time to learn the program. I definitely needed to refer to the guide often in the beginning to ensure code was correct. I wish there was a more interactive training or guide to refer to.

**What problems is Cabal solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We have developed libraries for selected themes, catalogues. This is a great tool for the university setting not only business.
