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
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:
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)).
