How to do it...

1. Create a new project, working-with-splice, with a simple stack template:

        stack new working-with-splice simple

2. Add a dependency on the heist library in the build-depends sub-section of the executable section. In addition, also add a dependency on additional libraries required for this recipe. In addition to text, bytestring, lens, and xmlhtml, also add the time library:

 executable working-with-splice
   hs-source-dirs:      src
   main-is:             Main.hs
   default-language:    Haskell2010
   build-depends:       base >= 4.7 && < 5
                      , heist
                      , text
                      , bytestring
                      , lens
                      , xmlhtml
                      , time

3. Open src/Main.hs. We will be adding our source here. Add the support for OverloadedStrings. Also add the required modules after the definition of the Main module:
