### Why does ghcup now use stack code?
### Why should I use ghcup over stack?
GHCup is not a replacement for stack. Instead, it supports installing and managing stack versions.
It does the same for cabal, GHC and HLS. As such, It doesn't make a workflow choice for you.
### Why should I let ghcup manage stack?
You don't need to. However, some users seem to prefer to have a central tool that manages cabal and stack
at the same time. Additionally, it can allow better sharing of GHC installation across these tools.
