Game design question: how to base item generation on character skill, but not promote artificial optimal play?
here's the failed commit: https://github.com/LambdaHack/LambdaHack/commit/930dfd46b949d1525e900b997137389a8092305b

[ANN] Monomer, a GUI library for Haskell
I've recently tried that and gave up (https://github.com/LambdaHack/LambdaHack/issues/248). Perhaps it's possible to statically link SDL2, but I learnt it's impossible to statically link the OpenGL and X11 libraries, so you end up with a partially statically linked binary (I didn't manage to obtain even that).

Getting Started...
I did some plotline sketches on the github wiki of my project, but never used them so far. Not much use from the other musings there, either. Instead I tweak the templates for procedural generation directly in the code (game content part of the code, to be precise) and get a lot of mileage out of that. The only page of the wiki I got lots of benefit from is the derivation of the simplified formula for calculating speed, distance and damage of projectile from their weight: https://github.com/LambdaHack/LambdaHack/wiki/Item-statistics#projectile-velocity-and-distance

Getting to 1.0
Around a decade. No, one release per 1-2 years. The differences are quite large, both gameplay and, even more, UI, in particular in using ready fornts, then custom fonts, then many fonts at once. See the changelogs (that's only for the egine, but that's where most of the changes are made): https://github.com/LambdaHack/LambdaHack/releases

I'd like to share my first impressions of yesod and haskell
I don't know about gloss, but building a game with sdl2 been fairly straightforward for a few years now, and I know of one gtk3 tutorial, but also monomer seem to have pretty good tutorials and examples.
- Suggestions for "dashboard" graphics libraries?

SimpleX Chat - the first messaging platform that has no user identifiers (not even random numbers) - v3.0 of iOS and Android apps is released - coded in Haskell!
I would like to suggest the following Haskell GUI-library for the desktop application: https://github.com/fjvallarino/monomer

Help with running openGL applications
I recently tried building a monomer application, hoping to get it to run on my phone phone (currently I'm running the latest Manjaro phosh demo).

GUI with electron vs monomer performance
i was considering an electron app with pure script or GHCJS and then i came across https://github.com/fjvallarino/monomer and i would like to pursue it. I am just wondering if anybody knows how does it perform compared to an electron based app?

Is Haskell capable of this?
If you're looking into creating UIs, Monomer provides a declarative style inspired on Elm's architecture.

What projects to make in Haskell?
If you used Swift UI and like creating GUIs declaratively, Monomer may interest you.

Can't install WxHaskell on Windows
monomer is probably the newest GUI library for Haskell. It looks good, though I haven’t tried it.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing LambdaHack and monomer you can also consider the following projects:
postgresql-simple-url - Heroku helpers for pulmurice server
static-haskell-nix - easily build most Haskell programs into fully static Linux executables
rattletrap - :car: Parse and generate Rocket League replays.
MetalNanoVG - The Metal port of NanoVG.
tateti-tateti - Meta tic-tac-toe ncurses game.
simplexmq - ⚙️ SimpleXMQ - A reference implementation of the SimpleX Messaging Protocol for simplex queues over public networks.
