Sumario: | "This book transformed the way that I think about and write JavaScript." Andrew Meredith, Intrinsitech Corporation Functional Programming in JavaScript teaches you techniques to improve your web applications: their extensibility, modularity, reusability, and testability, as well as their performance. This easy-to-read book/course uses concrete examples and clear explanations to show you how to use functional programming in real life. If you're new to functional programming, you'll appreciate this guide's many insightful comparisons to imperative or object-oriented programming that help you understand functional design. By the end, you'll think about application design in a fresh new way, and you may even grow to appreciate monads! In complex web applications, the low-level details of your JavaScript code can obscure the workings of the system as a whole. As a coding style, functional programming (FP) promotes loosely coupled relationships among the components of your application, making the big picture easier to design, communicate, and maintain. Inside: High-value FP techniques for real-world uses Using FP where it makes the most sense Separating the logic of your system from implementation details FP-style error handling, testing, and debugging All code samples use JavaScript ES6 (ES 2015) Created for developers with a solid grasp of JavaScript fundamentals and web application design. Luis Atencio (@luijar) is a staff software engineer for Citrix Systems in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. He has a B.S. and an M.S. in computer science and now works full-time developing and architecting applications using JavaScript, Java, and PHP platforms. Luis is very involved in the community and has presented frequently at local meetups and conferences. He blogs about software engineering at luisatencio.net, writes articles for magazines and DZone, and is also the coauthor of RxJS in Action (Manning, 2017). Easy to navigate, with real-life examples. Amy Teng, Dell Now, this is the way to write JavaScript! William E. Wheeler, West Corporation After reading this book, I revisited how I approached coding and was able to retrain my mind using better methods and techniques.
