 - ["hasql"](https://github.com/nikita-volkov/hasql) - the root of the ecosystem, which provides the essential abstraction over the PostgreSQL client functionality and mapping of values. Everything else revolves around that library.
 
-- ["hasql-th"](https://github.com/nikita-volkov/hasql-th) - Template Haskell utilities, providing compile-time syntax checking and easy statement declaration. 
-
 - ["hasql-transaction"](https://github.com/nikita-volkov/hasql-transaction) - an STM-inspired composable abstraction over database transactions providing automated conflict resolution.

+- ["hasql-postgresql-types"](https://github.com/nikita-volkov/hasql-postgresql-types) - integration with the ["postgresql-types"](https://github.com/nikita-volkov/postgresql-types) library, which is a collection of Haskell types precisely modeling PostgreSQL types without data loss or compromise.

 - ["hasql-cursor-transaction"](https://github.com/nikita-volkov/hasql-cursor-transaction) - a lower-level abstraction over cursors, which however allows to fetch from multiple cursors simultaneously. Generally though "hasql-cursor-query" is the recommended alternative.
