• Its focus on side-effect free code, unadorned data manipulation and simple structures promote a coding style that reduces bugs, and lifts the level of abstraction to a point where we can achieve more with less code.
• All topics discussed in the course can be used to various degrees in any code-base – even if your daily work is with a huge object-oriented project, the techniques discussed will certainly be useful.Learning Functional JavaScript will show you how to build powerful abstractions by combining many small and simple functions, and how to strip your data modeling to the necessities.
• We start by investigating the power of higher-order functions by diving right into the implementation of the sample application.
• We then elaborate by partially applying and composing functions before we end up with lazy evaluation to boost our abstraction power and performance.Right from the start we'll dive into the implementation of a text-based adventure game.
