[ANN] Yampa 0.14.6 released!

[ivanperez-keera]

I'm really, really excited to announce release 0.14.6.

In terms of code changes, this release includes compatibility with GHC 9.8.1, and includes small cleaning efforts in one of the examples. However, this release has also included a subtle but important improvement: a link to an example of Yampa for the web using WebAssembly.

First things first: massive thanks to @AntanasKal for putting the example together.

Second: this opens a whole new kind of possibilities with Yampa. While we already had the possibility of targeting the web via GHCJS, having a convenient, fast backend for the web may prove to be a game changer.

I'd like to invite everyone in the community to create examples, games, animations and web applications in Yampa. I'd also like to put out a call for contributors who would like to keep Yampa alive. Future releases will feature changes in terms of code stability, performance improvements, and cleaning. It's hard work, but immensely rewarding: Yampa has now been around for more than 20 years, and it's incredible to be part of such a part of Haskell's history.

This release compiles with all versions of GHC from 7.6 to 9.8.1.

For details on the release, see: v0.14.6.

Thank you to Johannes Riecken for being a Yampa sponsor for this release!

Happy Haskelling!
