I'm trying to wrap my head around FRP by ignoring the whole GUI part
for now and working with Sodium[6] to do simple really simple
things[1]. I've extracted the Poodle (OpenGL with Sodium) example into
a separate github to add a cabal file[2]. You should be able to use
'cabal run' on that.
Top FRP talk on Youtube I have found thus far is: An Event-driven and
Reactive Future[3], which does a nice overview of FRP and how it
relates to other patterns.
Also playing around with Elm[4] and Bacon.js[5] in the browser is fun.
If you find working GUI examples, please consider sharing them and
posting a link on this thread!
Greetings,
Bram

As for reactive-banana-wx: There's a reason I started Threepenny. :)
Regarding this issue: Could you please clarify this (ideally on the threepenny and reactive-banana github pages)? I have looked into these projects from time to time and was quite confused by all the dependency changes (threepenny being now standalone without relation to reactive-banana, if i understood correctly). I guess a clear note would be helpful to a lot of people looking for a FRP library.
Well, there are FRP (functional reactive programming) libraries and there are GUI (graphical user interface) libraries. While the two go well together, these are really two separate concepts. Which one of the two are you looking for?
reactive-banana = FRP only reactive-banana-wx = connects a GUI library and an FRP library threepenny = mainly GUI, but includes a small FRP part
I will try to make the distinction more clear on the project homepage (to which the github pages link), but I can't guarantee that there will be less confusion for people who are completely new to these ideas.
