base-orphans: Backwards-compatible orphan instances for base

[ compatibility, library, mit ] [ Propose Tags ] [ Report a vulnerability ]

base-orphans defines orphan instances that mimic instances available in later versions of base to a wider (older) range of compilers. base-orphans does not export anything except the orphan instances themselves and complements base-compat.

See the README for what instances are covered: https://github.com/haskell-compat/base-orphans#readme
