Overview of this book

Functional programming is a powerful programming paradigm that can help you to write better code. However, learning functional programming can be complicated, and the existing literature is often too complex for beginners. This book is an approachable introduction to functional programming and reactive programming with TypeScript for readers without previous experience in functional programming with JavaScript, TypeScript , or any other programming language. The book will help you understand the pros, cons, and core principles of functional programming in TypeScript. It will explain higher order functions, referential transparency, functional composition, and monads with the help of effective code examples. Using TypeScript as a functional programming language, you’ll also be able to brush up on your knowledge of applying functional programming techniques, including currying, laziness, and immutability, to real-world scenarios. By the end of this book, you will be confident when it comes to using core functional and reactive programming techniques to help you build effective applications with TypeScript.

Proficient

To reach the proficient level, you will need to master the following concepts and skills:

CONCEPTS SKILLS
  • Codata
  • (Co)recursion schemes
  • Advanced optics
  • Dual abstractions (comonad)
  • Monad transformers
  • Free monads and extensible effects
  • Functional architecture
  • Advanced functors (exponential, profunctors, contravariant)
  • Embedded domain-specific languages (DSLs) using generalized algebraic datatypes (GADTs)
  • Advanced monads (continuation, logic)
