POSTPONED TO SUNDAY: The Future of JavaScript - Functional Programming
Details
Use the 381 Broadway entrance and come to the 5th floor
POSTPONED TO SUNDAY: Join Will Sentance for an overview of functional programming and a deep dive into functional techniques to make your code more readable and maintainable.
This workshop will be a combination of live interactive lecture and pair programming through challenges. You will go under-the-hood of JavaScript, so you can confidently tackle new problems and work through blocks.
We will deep dive into the core tenets of functional programming building from first principles:
-
Write clean and readable declarative code with higher order functions, callbacks and arrow functions
-
Understand reduce, reducers and pure functions to better understand React and Redux
-
Understand closure under-the-hood to make functions to implement the decorator pattern and make your functions more reusable through partial application and currying
-
Use functions as units to write more expressive code and build out your applications through function composition and point-free style
This workshop is designed for programmers with intermediate JavaScript ability (you should be familiar with JavaScript fundamentals)
Price: Always free!
