Functional Programming in JavaScript

So you’ve learned some JavaScript and you’re curious to learn about the programming paradigms you can use to architect your software. Tonight will be an intro to Functional programming. We’ll look at how you can abstract your code by writing pure functions and use partial application, currying and composition to write cleaner more maintainable code. We’ll also see how a functional programming approach can be useful when using robust front-end technologies like React.js and Angular 2.
