Publisher's Synopsis
Unleash the full power of functional programming and revolutionize the way you build backend systems.
In Functional Programming Demystified, you'll go beyond theory and dive into real-world application using three powerful languages-Haskell for mathematical precision, Elixir for scalable concurrency, and JavaScript for cross-platform flexibility. Whether you're a backend developer looking to adopt FP principles or a seasoned engineer seeking to improve code clarity, this book is your ultimate roadmap.
What You'll Learn:
Master immutable data structures and pure functions to build bug-resistant applications.
Leverage pattern matching, monads, and type inference in Haskell for expressive, type-safe programming.
Harness OTP, actor models, and message-passing concurrency in Elixir for fault-tolerant web services.
Apply functional pipelines, closures, and first-class functions in JavaScript for clean, modular logic.
Build RESTful APIs with stateless architecture using FP principles.
Integrate with real-time systems and event-driven design for reactive programming at scale.
Refactor legacy codebases with function composition, higher-order functions, and currying.
Implement microservices and functional domain modeling to design scalable backend ecosystems.
Perfect for:
Software engineers transitioning to FP
Backend developers focused on scalability and performance
Programmers aiming to improve code maintainability and testability
