- lisardo 9y agoI talk about my experience. I deployed Elm to production in several projects for the biggest group fitness company in the US. It's incredible. Compiler errors are incredible. No undefined bullshit. It's purely functional, so the code you need to understand at the same time is always gonna be inside 20 lines. And you can use it with javascript if you want too. You will learn a lot using a pure functional programming language. Programming is about transforming data, so even if I go back to any OO language I learned that state can cause several problems.
- martijn_himself 9y agoThat sounds great. Did you have to convince anyone to adopt Elm or were you free to pick your language of choice? Using a pure functional language appeals to me as well.
