Is threepenny-gui really reactive?
If you really want FRP, use Obelisk (based on Reflex-Dom. I will call just say "Obelisk" to refer to Obelisk's dependencies Reflex-Dom, Reflex,... too). I like the author of threepenny-gui and the library has the great advantages of not needing GHCJS (Obelisk does not need GHCJS either theoretically but I do not know how easy it currently is to make it work without) nor Nix. But the library was originally built as a non-FRP library and it has been lacking essential FRP combinators for a long time.

How is it going with desktop apps nowadays? What happened to wxHaskell?
The threepenny-gui library is probably best if you just want a simple way to make GUIs. However, it doesn't really do desktop GUIs as such: it displays your GUI as a webpage running on localhost. However, it does work pretty well with Electron, which gives you a desktop application.

Best UI Toolkit for generating UI elements at runtime
For this purpose, I normally use threepenny-gui, which can be used with Electron. (As it happens, that combination is what Iām using for my current Haskell program.)

Single-page app with no backend (can deploy to GitHub Pages): https://github.com/srid/reflex-stone

Obelisk or Reflex Platform? Where to start
You can go with reflex-platform, but still get `ob run` like development environment via jsaddle in ghc. Checkout https://github.com/srid/reflex-stone for some ideas.

Reflex-FRP development on windows
WSL2 + Nix + VSCode Remote should get you even native IDE support for reflex apps. I've tested it with this template repo.

Haskell to JS
I wrote reflex-stone for Haskell newbies to play with GHCJS/reflex, including IDE support in VSCode. It even comes with a GitHub Action to deploy your resulting site to GitHub Pages.
