- The `WebAssembly backend
<https://www.tweag.io/blog/2022-11-22-wasm-backend-merged-in-ghc>`_
has been merged. This allows GHC to be built as a cross-compiler
that targets ``wasm32-wasi`` and compiles Haskell code to
self-contained WebAssembly modules that can be executed on a variety
of different runtimes. There are a few caveats to be aware of:
- To use the WebAssembly backend, one would need to follow the
instructions on `ghc-wasm-meta
<https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc-wasm-meta>`_. The WebAssembly
backend is not included in the GHC release bindists for the time
being, nor is it supported by ``ghcup`` or ``stack`` yet.
- The WebAssembly backend is still under active development. It's
presented in this GHC version as a technology preview, bugs and
missing features are expected.
- The :extension:`TypeInType` is now marked as deprecated. Its meaning has been included
in :extension:`PolyKinds` and :extension:`DataKinds`.
