TypeScript 4 Design Patterns and Best Practices
By :

Within this chapter, we explored the fundamental concepts of functional programming and explored some practical examples. Those concepts constitute the backbone of functional programming in general.
We started by understanding the concepts of purity, function composition, and immutability. We noted practical examples of recursion and discovered the benefits of referential transparency. We resumed our exploration with practical functional programming constructs, starting with lenses, which form an abstraction over getters and setters, after which, we learned how transducers can be used to process infinite streams of data in a chain without loss of performance. Finally, we looked at monads and their crucial helpfulness in constructing composable structures at scale.
Utilizing these concepts will support you in structuring your code in a pleasant, abstract way with scalability in mind. In the subsequent chapter, you will learn how reactive programming can help us deliver...
