Examples

Parser

The reasons why the arrow concept can solve important questions when designing a parser library are explained in Generalising Monads to Arrows written by John Hughes.

A good example of the mentioned arrow parsers can be seen in A New Notation for Arrows written by Ross Peterson: figure 2, 4, 6 (page 3, 5, 6).

An implementation: PArrows written by Einar Karttunen.

Stream processor

The Lazy K programming language is an interesing esoteric language (from the family purely functional languages), whose I/O concept is approached by streams.

Functional I/O, graphical user interfaces

Dataflow languages

Arrows and Computation written by Ross Paterson mentions how to mimick dataflow programming in (lazy) functional languages. See more on Lucid's own HaskellWiki page: Lucid.
