1. Functional strictly typed programming patterns. It's hard to say if functional languages themselves will get adoption, but we definitely see functional patterns being used more and more in languages like Javascript, and being pushed in things like React/Redux.
2. Graphql/service-based architectures
- bionhoward 6y agoThe jargon of FP is crazy though! How do you learn all of that?
- darksaints 6y agoThere are two subcommunities in the world of functional strictly typed programming languages. The Haskell camp is where you get the mind bending jargon and ivory tower ideas. Luckily, there is another camp that eschews this head-in-the-clouds thinking and sticks to practical matters first and foremost. You'll want to look for the ML family of languages: SML, Rust, Ocaml, F#, and Scala (my favorite of them all, but for some reason some people are trying to turn it into Haskell on the JVM).
