TucsonJS Meetup

03/19/15

The talk today is "Functional JavaScript". The slides are available and basically the complete talk.

Continuation Passing Style: it's the way you feed in a callback such that things executed asynchronously.

This javascript talk is talking a lot about Haskell.

Concepts to grok:

• Continuation Passing Style
• Declarativeness
• Exhaustiveness
• Specification
• Monads (again)
• Promises
• Immutability
• Applicatives

Monads are a contract.

Slides are here.
