Are there any binary distributions available for download? I'm asking mostly for Windows here, since Linux distros seem covered. Just to make it easier to retrieve.

    Not that I'm aware, sorry.

    The installation with Stack downloads ~500MB of the specific GHC and the related libraries. Not to mention that one needs to have the whole Haskel development stack installed just to run a small test execution binary.
    This might be highly inconvenient for those who don't already have it installed.

    I could provide the binary for Windows. Or a GitHub action could be set up to build a couple of common binary formats and attach to the Release. Linux seems ok, as mentioned, but Windows users are left dead in the water.
    It seems easier to write another tool that executes a cli and collects stdout than to set the whole stack up from scratch. Not to mention the disk size. :D

    Won't even mention an aarch64-linux-android binary at this point.

    I can send a x64 binary. Once you have time, you could attach it to the Release.

    Or, as mentioned, an action might be set up to build them automatically. I have to look into this further. It's free for OS repositories.

    It seems that Alpine also does not have the package.
