Hi guys,

I've got a suggestion for the js pattern section:

Yesterday I learned about currying. Maybe this could be usefull to be included. I included a list of sources that might be interesting:

Hey @fabitee, sorry the delay. Yea it could be very useful for sure. Let me know if you want to put that content by your self so that you can become a contributor. Thanks and welcome! :+1:

@allanesquina I'd love to contribute but since I just got into the topic I don't think I'm overly qualified to find the perfect resources for this topic. Thing is, I found two ways people tend to curry stuff:

  1. Breaking down a function with multiple arguments into several functions with one argument each. A simple JSFiddle example.
  2. Object methods return the object itself so the functions can be chained together. JSFiddle right here.

I am unsure if version 2 really is currying or something else.
