Haskell Syntax highlighting seems dull.

Currently all of these are one colour: functions/variables (definitions and use), brackets, types.
As well as operators and keywords are also the same colour.

There only seems to be a total of 5 colours on screen

Haskell's "lack" of liveliness is probably related to the fact that functions and variables are the same thing syntactically.

Here is a comparison between Spacemacs and Oni.

Also, Oni reminds me of when I used gVim, so it could be an upstream issue.

Hello and welcome to the Oni repository! Thanks for opening your first issue here. To help us out, please make sure to include as much detail as possible - including screenshots and logs, if possible.

Are you using any Haskell syntax highlighting plugin for vim or depending solely on Oni's default one?

Another point is I'm pretty sure Oni isn't bundled with a textmate grammar for haskell which would provide syntax highlighting as well -> another good first issues for anyone interested would essentially be copy pasting a file into the extensions/haskell and adding the path in onis default config's dir like was done in #2539
