1 What is it?
Reactive-banana is a library for Functional Reactive Programming (FRP).
Support the project with a small donation: 
FRP offers an elegant and concise way to express interactive programs such as graphical user interfaces, animations, computer music or robot controllers. Thus, the reactive-banana library promises to avoid the spagethetti code commonly used in traditional GUI technologies.
The specific goal of the library is to provide a solid foundation.
- Users can finally use FRP to program graphical user interfaces as the library can be hooked into any existing event-based framework like wxHaskell or Gtk2Hs. A plethora of example code helps with getting started.
- 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!
