Functional javascript #38

Open mirontoli opened 8 years ago

mirontoli commented 8 years ago

Hi, I wrote a blog post about sharepoint utilities - SharePoint Utilities - a promising JavaScript Framework. Could you review the part about the "Functional javascript" in that post? @roobie In my eyes it is a fundamental piece that sharepoint utilities provides. I am not sure how to explain "functional javascript" in a good and short way.

well, quite simply, what we do is that we use internally, and also re-export the library http://functionaljs.com/ (also MIT licensed) under the name sputils.fjs.

So, it is as you write in your post, a possible alternative to lodash.js et al. We opted for functional.js because it is lightweight, and we did not want to make assumptions regarding the environment in which sputils is used.
