The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

3D graphics on Haskell in 2023
As other comments have pointed out, OpenGL isn't your issue: 4.6 came out in 2017 and both the low-level gl/OpenGLRaw as well as the mid-level OpenGL libraries are up to date if you check the timestamps. And yes, GLFW-b is the go-to library for creating windows across platforms.

[Newcomer] Status of AI, graphics programming and performance in Haskell?
At this point the answer is: yes, we have some. We have sdl2 (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/sdl2), gl (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/gl), OpenGL (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/OpenGL), GLFW (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/GLFW), vulkan (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/vulkan), dear-imgui.hs (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/dear-imgui). There's certainly much more out there - this is a biased list of stuff I've either used or contributed to.

3D graphics on Haskell in 2023
In addition, I am building a Nix library on top of haskell.nix called macaroni.nix that is gamedev-oriented and enables seamless cross-compiling from Linux to Windows. I would say it's the best option for Windows Haskell game x-compilation available today.

[ANN] LD52 game written in Haskell
We just managed to get our ludum dare game finished, including standalone builds (with a very special thanks to macaroni.dev.) The game is a platformer written in sdl and yampa, with build scripts for releasing static linux and windows builds.

Is Nix important also for a team of 1 developer?
Aside from that, haskell/macaroni.nix make x-compilation work great. I even was able to use the h-raylib bindings with little upstream changes/overlays.

Haskell is the greatest programming language of all time
In terms of finished and playable games, it's been Ludum Dare jam games made over a weekend over the years. You can check them out here. They're all Windows-only (x-compiled from NixOS using haskell.nix via macaroni.nix), but you can play them on Linux with Wine64. If you have Nix installed, I have a script that should Just Work.

Any up-to-date cross-compiling methods for Raspberry Pi?
Also feel free to cut me an issue in my related project, macaroni.nix. The project is focused on x-compiling Haskell games and only supported Windows currently. But brick is a viable gamedev library, and Raspberry Pi is a desired target for gamedev someday. So I'd love to help!
What are some alternatives?
When comparing gl and macaroni.nix you can also consider the following projects:
