Absolutely. It's just that less fuss is being made about it on hacker news because the cool kids say you'll be a better programmer in other languages if you learn rust when they used to say that you'll be a better programmer in other languages if you learn haskell.

With stack (consistent package version snapshot database based project starter and build tool) instead of cabal, you get the transferable and repeatable build benefits of docker with none of the hassle. Just stack new at the start and stack build or stack repl during development. Nothing gets bitrotten any more.

Nah, I am not talking about hackernews buzz. I just thought it is dying couple of years ago.
