[edit] High-level GUI libraries built on top of wxHaskell

As a comparison shows [1], wxHaskell is a middle-level GUI library. Several experimental high-level GUI library approaches are implemented on top wxHaskell:

As a contrast, the high-level GUI library FG and Grapefruit are implemented on top of the middle-level Gtk2Hs, which is based on GTK2.

All the three above mentioned high-level GUI libraries are experimental, using advanced mathematical concepts in their approach: see arrows in functional programming.
