The official helm website is no longer available. Is this done on purpose? If so, we should change the link in the description.

Also, are you still interested in example projects? Because I made this one a while ago:
https://github.com/Bargsteen/Starfield :)

@Bargsteen not sure if author has time to maintain this repo anymore, last commit was a year ago. Thanks for your excellent example though! I was trying to find a fork someone else might be maintaining. Are you okay with my adding your example to my fork of this project?

@td-ideabox Oh, what a shame.
Yea of course! :)

@Bargsteen I finally got around to adding your project in my fork:
https://github.com/td-ideabox/helm/tree/master/standalone-examples/Starfield

Let me know if there is anything else I should specifically do to properly attribute you!

I also created an issue in your Starfield repo with a gif attached to it. I'm trying to figure out why I see weird black bars corrupting my window when I run your game and the examples. Here's that gif again:

I'm on OSX High Sierra, curious if you encountered the same? I noticed the author of Helm is on LTS 8.18 I believe, when I used that LTS I didn't appear to have the issue. But then again the first time I cloned and ran your game I didn't have issues, but moving them into my fork caused the issues. So weird.

Figured it out, the version of Helm on hackage is pretty out of date with the repo. So future users will want to add the repo as a dependency via extra-deps:

In stack.yaml write:

extra-deps:
  - github: td-ideabox/helm
    commit: 474aa264d976379b95458ee43de497f952040d52 

That example is using my own fork of this repo but just replace that with this repo or what not.
