Write a Skyroads clone
Who of you remembers this awesome game? One of my favorites when I was a child (oh yes!).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SkyRoads(videogame)
Why not program something similar and reinvent the wheel?! Yes there are many clones out there but Hackweek should be about having fun, right?
I would love to write the clone in Haskell using a functional reactive programming library (e.g. Yampa or Netwire).
My goal is to learn more about OpenGL, GLSL and Haskell.
If you're interested don't hesitate to join and have fun together!

Update Haskell ecosystem in Tumbleweed to GHC-9.10.x by psimons
Description
We are currently at GHC-9.8.x, which a bit old. So I'd like to take a shot at the latest version of the compiler, GHC-9.10.x. This is gonna be interesting because the new version requires major updates to all kinds of libraries and base packages, which typically means patching lots of packages to make them build again.
Goals
Have working builds of GHC-9.10.x and the required Haskell packages in 'devel:languages:haskell` so that we can compile:
git-annexpandocxmonadcabal-install

RISC-V emulator in GLSL capable of running Linux by favogt
Description
There are already numerous ways to run Linux and some programs through emulation in a web browser (e.g. x86 and riscv64 on https://bellard.org/jslinux/), but none use WebGL/WebGPU to run the emulation on the GPU.
I already made a PoC of an AArch64 (64-bit Arm) emulator in OpenCL which is unfortunately hindered by a multitude of OpenCL compiler bugs on all platforms (Intel with beignet or the new compute runtime and AMD with Mesa Clover and rusticl). With more widespread and thus less broken GLSL vs. OpenCL and the less complex implementation requirements for RV32 (especially 32bit integers instead of 64bit), that should not be a major problem anymore.
Goals
Write an RISC-V system emulator in GLSL that is capable of booting Linux and run some userspace programs interactively. Ideally it is small enough to work on online test platforms like Shaderoo with a custom texture that contains bootstrap code, kernel and initrd.
Minimum:
riscv32 without FPU (RV32 IMA) and MMU (µClinux), running Linux in M-mode and userspace in U-mode.
Stretch goals:
FPU support, S-Mode support with MMU, SMP. Custom web frontend with more possibilities for I/O (disk image, network?).

OpenGL 4.5 Quick Reference Card
Result as of Hackweek 2024
WebGL turned out to be insufficient, it only supports OpenGL ES 3.0 but imageLoad/imageStore needs ES 3.1. So we switched directions and had to write a native C++ host for the shaders.
As of Hackweek Friday, the kernel attempts to boot and outputs messages, but panics due to missing memory regions.
Since then, some bugs were fixed and enough hardware emulation implemented, so that now Linux boots with framebuffer support and it's possible to log in and run programs!
