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.

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.

Lottie under the hood
Actually, that's not entirely accurate. The lottie-web library itself doesn't support rendering to WebGL. However, there is a package called canvaskit-wasm that wraps Skia (a graphics engine) with WebAssembly (wasm). This package includes a module called skottie which supports rendering animations into a WebGL surface. However, there is a drawback with this approach: using wasm requires loading a relatively large package, and it's uncertain whether all features are supported correctly, as the official compatibility table that tracks lottie support on different platforms does not include skottie.

Due to popular demand, here’s part 2
The imgs are mainly used by Tencent QQ and Baidu Tieba users. QQ and Tieba compress imgs by default, so the popular imgs (in China we call them "屌图" or "表情包") would be compressed million of times during the spreading, causing the super low quality. These APPs on Android are using Skia for image processing, which suffering from a legendary bug: result would be more green. The bug was fixed in 2016: https://github.com/google/skia/commit/c7d01d3e1d3621907c27b283fb7f8b6e177c629d
