What is it?

Reactive-banana is a library for Functional Reactive Programming (FRP).

The goal is to create a solid foundation for anything FRP-related.

  • Users can finally start experimenting with graphical user interfaces based on FRP as the library can be hooked into any existing event-based framework like wxHaskell or Gtk2Hs. A plethora of example code helps with getting to know the library.
  • Programmers interested in implementing FRP will have a reference for a simple semantics with a working implementation.
  • It features an efficient implementation. No more spooky time leaks, predicting space & time usage should be straightforward.

Feedback is welcome, I want to hear from you!

Status

Current development focuses on providing tutorials, documentation and examples for the library. Furthermore, the author is writing an example application to flesh out the FRP approach to GUI programming.

  • 26 September 2011: Added some more examples, reactive-banana 0.4.2.0 released.
  • 14 July 2011: Implemented many examples, reactive-banana 0.4.1.0 released.
  • 22 June 2011: reactive-banana 0.3.0.0 released
  • 28 April 2011: reactive-banana 0.2.0.0 released
