Basically, Arrowlets and Flapjax have complementary designs: Arrowlets is control-flow oriented whereas Flapjax is data-flow oriented. Arrowlets maps particularly well to state machines and I think it's easier to adopt in existing JavaScript applications.

I'm currently writing some "real-world" applications with Flapjax, and have came up with a pattern which is abstracted out using, guess what, arrows! (well, a specific arrow actually) I have a pair (Dom, EventStream) and a few combinators (first, second, bimap) which I use to ease composition. Well, I'm trying out a different approach now. But having a solid theoretical foundation would be great in any case. Also, I would like to know when Arrowlets are more applicable than Flapjax. Can you elaborate? Hi,

I’m currently writing some “real-world” applications with Flapjax, and have came up with a pattern which is abstracted out using, guess what, arrows! (well, a specific arrow actually)

Well, I’m trying out a different approach now. But having a solid theoretical foundation would be great in any case.

Also, I would like to know when Arrowlets are more applicable than Flapjax. Can you elaborate?

A blog! Hopefully I'll find some time somewhere soon where I can build some more stuff with Arrowlets. Have you seen John Resig's latest blog post [1]? That code looks a lot like Arrowlets.
