In FLJS Kyle Simpson uses his prolific understanding of JavaScript and Functional Programming to bring these important concepts to the JavaScript world. 😻

I've been coding for almost more than 4 years, I wrote huge AngularJS 1.x apps, and recently React apps, I've been up-to-date of all articles and online courses as much as possible (Absolutely Geek!), but I can say for sure that the FLJS book is mind-blowing! I almost lost my mind with the concepts it explains! This book gave me the right way of programming by understanding concepts more than focusing on Frameworks! Thanks @getify :heart:

By focusing on the principles instead of terminology I now feel much more confident in my understanding of the foundation of functional programming. I'm motivated and excited to dive even deeper!

[getify]

thanks, these are great! keep 'em coming!

Nobody explains JavaScript as well as Kyle Simpson. He is as thorough as he is humble, explaining complex ideas in simple language. Kyle makes learning JavaScript easy without skipping the details. ~ Dmitri Wolf, Front End Developer, IBM

@DmitriWolf Thanks so much, that's really kind of you to say! :)

After reading this book, I finally found the reason why I should use functional programming. Although I'm experienced in using list operators, the chapter 9 gave me a new point of view to use them better. I would recommend this book to my coworkers. Thanks @getify! ~ Tuyen Ho, Full-Stack Developer, Grande JSC.
