monomer VS gloss

Yes - for example https://github.com/fjvallarino/monomer

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.

I would like to suggest the following Haskell GUI-library for the desktop application: https://github.com/fjvallarino/monomer

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).

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?

Release notes: https://github.com/fjvallarino/monomer/releases/tag/1.4.1.0

If you're looking into creating UIs, Monomer provides a declarative style inspired on Elm's architecture.

If you used Swift UI and like creating GUIs declaratively, Monomer may interest you.

monomer is probably the newest GUI library for Haskell. It looks good, though I haven’t tried it.

That Picture type is what does all the heavy lifting. Have you read its Haddocks already? There's an example using play in gloss-examples if it helps you (it just renders the most recent event as text on the screen). When I was new to Haskell and gloss, I found "following the types" helped. There's only a limited amount of things you can do with Picture, and those limitations can help guide you.

Haskell is the purest of the pure, and a fun language. Never done graphics with it but I see Gloss looks decent - https://github.com/benl23x5/gloss.

If you just want to draw stuff on a window, then have a look at gloss (a very simple yet useful interface to OpenGL) and sdl2 (which gives bindings to the SDL library).

This question is in the gloss FAQ:

Ideally, I'd like something like gloss in Haskell.
