Building Pandoc from Source

Building Pandoc from Source

I'm new to Haskell and looking to dive into the pandoc project.  I have the 
code downloaded and tried to build it using *stack setup/stack install*, 
but I'm not entirely sure it was successful because it fails to write to a 
directory 

AppData\\Local\\Programs\\stack\\x86_64-windows\\ghc-8.6.5\\": permission 
denied (Access is denied.)

I already have ghc 8.6.5 and stack 1.9.3 installed on my computer so maybe 
I can ignore this.  Did I build the project correctly or am I missing 
something?

Also, I'm building on 64-bit Windows 10.  According to INSTALL.md compiling 
from source section, the output should go to ~/.local/bin.  I can't find 
this anywhere on my computer.

~/.local/bin is used on *nix.
On Windows a different directory within the home directory
is used.

As for your other problem, that does sound more serious,
but I'm not sure what could be going wrong.

Perhaps you should wipe your current stack and ghc installations,
and start over (use the newest version of stack).
