> Under the hood, the application uses the Electron framework which in turn uses Chromium and Node.js. Using only HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, you can use Electron to develop a desktop application. The nice part about Movie Monad, however, is that we will create the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript using Haskell.

This is a nightmare.

The electron meme is really getting out of hand

>>62231613
hah, if >>62231927 stumps you, observe the RAM requirements of ghc itself

Anyway, it went from one shit tier technology to the next.

>>62232192
ghc is a compiler. It makes sense it would have high ram usage.

To a certain extend.
But we are talking about couples of GB for trivial some-k line software thanks to lazy evaluation.

Nice

>>62233333
I feel lied to, cheated, and defiled

so is haskell /ourlang/ or not? because I don't know if I should fall for this meme

>>62234256
It's a nice entry point if you want to get into the functional programming and computational logic field.
Don't use it for everything though.

>>62231613
50mb doesn't sound like that big of a runtime if you ask me.

GHC is great if you use the -O2 flag and turn on LLVM, and if you know how to make a program properly in haskell.

Protip: The kind of haskell you regularly see on the internet is shit-tier, good haskell requires practice but pays off well.

Slow language.
But still most enjoyable language to program. Specially if you care about abstraction / category teory

citation needed

Read the fucking link in the OP. The post is about rewriting the Electron version in Gtk, which reduces the RAM consumption from 300MB to 50.

Experts will still cause space leaks. Haskell is deprecated.

electron is pure cancer, my OS just freezes when ever i start Atom, im running fucking emcas all day long it even starts at boot up and that shit never happened with it

>>62237022
electron is great, especially vscode

>>62231613
Haskell is not suitable for GUIs. Even FRP frameworks haven't made it any less painful and it's the cleanest abstraction found yet.
