wxHaskell is a portable and native graphical user interface (GUI) library for the programming language Haskell, built on wxWidgets. It is often used by those wanting to develop a graphical user interface (GUI) with a functional programming language.[1]

Applications

[edit]

High-level GUI libraries built on it

[edit]

wxHaskell is a middle-level GUI library.[2] Several experimental high-level GUI library approaches are implemented on wxHaskell:

In contrast, the high-level GUI libraries FG and Grapefruit are implemented on the middle-level Gtk2Hs, which is based on GTK2.

All of these high-level libraries are experimental, using advanced mathematics concepts in their approach (see Arrow (computer science)).

    High-level GUI libraries built on it

    wxHaskell is a middle-level GUI library.[2] Several experimental high-level GUI library approaches are implemented on wxHaskell:

    • Reactive-banana
    • FunctionalForms
    • wxFruit
    • Phooey

    In contrast, the high-level GUI libraries FG and Grapefruit are implemented on the middle-level Gtk2Hs, which is based on GTK2.

    All of these high-level libraries are experimental, using advanced mathematics concepts in their approach (see Arrow (computer science)).
