Applied Functional Programming in JavaScript

Friday - Aug 21 4:45 PM EDT - EDISON A-B

JavaScript has first class support for functional programming. There are many techniques for writing code in more clear, and concise form, in JavaScript using these techniques. In this session, we'll explore these techniques and talk about how to implement them. We'll use commonly used libraries like underscore to make elegant JavaScript code.
