On almost the same topic (only the GHC side) I wrote a big picture note
"About units" a few years ago:
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/blob/12d3b66cedd3c80e7c1e030238c92d26631cab8d/compiler/GHC/Unit.hs#L23

You may remember a recent thread on ghc-devs about GHC and Cabal
<https://mail.haskell.org/pipermail/ghc-devs/2024-July/021678.html>.
In it I say how I feel I lack the "big picture" of how GHC and Cabal
interact, and that my mental model is probably faulty.
Tom Ellis took pity on me, and together we wrote this big-picture
overview about how GHC and Cabal interact
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mQEpV3fYz1pHi64KTnlv8gifh9ONQ-jytk5sIHqnV9U/edit?usp=sharing>.
Would you like to:
* Read it as a consumer.
o Does it tell you stuff that is useful?
o What else would you like to know?
o What is un-clear or missing?
* Read it as an expert.
o Is it accurate?
o Are any bits misleading?
o Do the links go to appropriate places?
o What other links or resource would be helpful.
It is not intended as a replacement for the GHC user guide, nor the
Cabal user guide; rather it is littered with links to those guides
which give much fuller details. Rather, it is intended to put you
(well, me for one!) in a position where you can more easily make sense
of those documents.
We'd love to have your help in improving it.
