In terms of tutorials and related blog posts I currently recommend
reactive-banana. In terms of power and elegance I recommend Netwire.
The main difference is that reactive-banana is both simple and easy. It
implements classic FRP with the usual notion of behaviors and events.
Heinrich strives to make it very accessible.
Netwire follows a more algebraic path and drops the classic notion. The
line between signals and events is blurred. It's a bit more difficult
to understand, but is more expressive and concise. Also it's pretty
much time-leak-free. The library is designed to be very elegant while
preserving non-FRP performance to a high degree.
(To be fair, I'm the author of Netwire.) =)
Greets,
Ertugrul

I don't know that netwire is more difficult to understand. I'm
appreciating the network analogy and the generalisation of wires.
Thanks for pointing it out!
Cheers,
Darren

I think of FRP as a Dream that's still being worked on. So to get at the
basics of the Dream I do a lot of gedankenexperiment, sketching on pen and
paper, and code fragments. I read Conal Elliott's blog to gather the
results of his investigations of that Dream.
But I understand that you're a practical kind of guy and prefers to push
and poke to learn stuff, and I think all the projects mentioned in this
thread are excellent starting points.
