@fp is taken as a user name but #fp as a channel name looks available.

slack is telling me otherwise

it could also be that it’s a private channel?

Based on my tests, you cannot create a channel with the same name as a person (username). Interesting restriction.

So… FP… what are folks’ histories around FP? How long? First FP language?

People have been telling me that I write javascript in a very functional way so I started looking at functional languages and found clojure

I don't believe that clojurescript/reagent would make me more productive than react/redux though

I suspect it would once you’d ramped up on cljs — React code looks very verbose to me, compared to what I’ve built with Reagent, but React is much more familiar to folks with an OOP background… and of course it’s easy to find JS developers (although not necessary easy to find good JS developers).

I think it’s very interesting to see the increased focus on FP style idioms in the JS world tho’...

I tried reagent, reframe and hoplon
