Description

This course introduces the main concepts and patterns of functional programming. I use the javascript Ramda library to explore to do this. The course is in two halves each with it's own assignment. At the end of the course you will

  • Understand how to write javascript in a functional style
  • Know what pure functions are and how to create them
  • Know the main principles underpinning functional programming 
  • Solved real coding problems in a functional style

The course is labeled 'intermediate' as it assumes some comfort with the command line, the notion of writing tests for code, and some familiarity with Javascript. However, if you are beginning to learn to code, or new to Javascript I'm confident you'll be able to follow along with no problem.

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone wanting to learn about functional programming
  • Developers wanting to start using the Ramda library
  • Full stack, backend and frontend developers will benefit from functional programming with Ramda
