0.12 release checklist

[lemmih]

What should be done before releasing 0.12 of geometry?

• Enumerate all exports.
• Consistent Big-O haddock notation.
• Finish https://hgeometry.org/ and add at least one video showcase.
• update the readme to include the new algorithms, and maybe we should advocate Data.RealNumber.Rational a bit more
• Merge the visibility polygon stuff ( since that actually includes some changes to the primitives as well)
• Fix building the automatic documentation generating thing; seems that https://noinia.github.io/hgeometry/doc/ yields a 404 now?
• make sure the hgeometry-examples build (we may want to add these to the CI) [1]

[1] Ideally, I would want to add building hgeometry-svg, hgeometry-web, and hgeometry-interactive as well. But for now that does not seem feasible, if only since hgeometry-web depends on jsaddle-dom, which requires some obscene amount of RAM to build (see ghcjs/jsaddle-dom#5 )

Data.RealNumber.Rational is a synonym of Rational with a better show instance, right? What's the main usecase?

[noinia]

Indeed; I got tired of staring at a wall of weird coordinate values and added the Data.RealNumber version.

I'm hoping to add some exact real number types in Data.RealNumber as well at some point (for those algorithms that need more than a Fractional constraint)

Oh my, looks like we're closing in on the 0.12 release. Anything last-minute we should include before pushing the release?

[noinia]

Just merged the updates to the docs; preparing a release now :)

[noinia]

I uploaded candidates for hgeometry-combinatorial and hgeometry itself. Hackage rejects hgeometry-ipe since it does not understand about StandAloneKindSignatures yet :S (hackage-server/#888) which is kind of annoying :S. I'll just tag this as 0.12 release though, and probably upload the hgeometry-ipe version to hackage later.

[noinia]

Done & Published on Hackage. Thanks for all your work on HGeometry!

Onwards to version 1.0! :)
