• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

What if the team hates my functional code? Learning functional programming can be intoxicating. Your code becomes more elegant, more expressive-solid. But what if the people you work with don't get it? Some of their concerns are legitimate. Others are plain ignorant. But how do you tell the difference? And either way, how do you have a rational conversation when there's so much angst? It seems like an impossible situation. But it doesn't have to be. What if you knew what to expect, ahead of time? Imagine if you already had intelligent, thoughtful responses, ready to go. Better yet, what if you could bring the team on the journey with you; help them see the beauty and benefits of functional code? This book will guide you through sorting myths from reality. Learn to spot performance pitfalls. Adjust your code to suit the team's familiarity, without compromising confidence. Learn to have nuanced, reasonable discussions. Write expressive, elegant code... and ship it!

Autorenporträt

James Sinclair works with JavaScript (in various flavours) on both the front and back-end. He's passionate about functional programming, and good software-engineering practice in general. Over the years he's worked on web projects for Ford Motor Company, Bendigo Bank, The Australian Broadcasting Corporation, Monash University, and the Prime Minister of Australia. Somewhere along the way, he picked up a PhD in Information Architecture, but decided building stuff on the web was more fun than being an academic. Find more from James at: https://jrsinclair.com
