I think Elm is second to none as a tool for learning FP. It compiles quickly, the guidance offered in error messages are best in class, it's small, and the mental model is consistent. In fact I think it's far easier to learn Elm (and also perhaps web UI development wouldn't be such a shitshow if programmers earlier in their career used Elm to build their mental model) than it is to learn: - React - Redux - Immutable.js - Lodash/Ramda - ES${CURRENT_YEAR} - Webpack/Parcel/Grunt/Groan/Whatever - etc… I've seen so many early programmers go through some React course thinking they've learned FP, and yet struggle to solve basic problems by applying functions to values. |
