Functional programming chapter

Open ufocoder opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

My proposal is introduce into history of functional js via libraries and languages that transpiled into js. For example now I see history lool like this.

Libraries:

  • Underscore/Lodash, Oct 25, 2009
  • RamdaJS, Jun 16, 2013
  • etc.

Languages:

  • ClosureScript May 29, 2011
  • Elm, First appeared in 2012
  • PureScript, Sep 29, 2013
  • etc.

Then in chapter could be explain the aim of each of them and how it influences on JS. And what was new in es6 in result.

By the way there's a good awesome page
