Summit 2014: Functional programming in Javascript / Yoav Rubin

The functional programming paradigm is working its way to become a first class tool for software developers, therefore it is an excellent match that Javascript, which is the programming language with the largest reach, supports this paradigm. In this talk I will present several ideas that are at the core of the functional programming paradigm and show how to use them in Javascript. As a result of this talk you will have a better idea of how to think and design software in a functional way, be familiar with several functional design patterns and specifically have a better knowledge of how to apply all this when developing software in Javascript.
