I’m trying out an idea that I would love to get your feedback on: it is a somewhat sloppy version of Railway Oriented Programming, in Python. I’m planning to write a blog post about this also. Here’s the repo, with docs: https://github.com/DavidVujic/pythonic-railway#a-pythonic-railway
toolz looks like 🤩 for a clojure developer coding python. Very cool 😄
have you seen: https://github.com/pytoolz/toolz ?
Very cool, thank you! I’ll add toolz to the resources section.

Aren't exceptions already "railway oriented programming" in the way you describe it?
emccue 2021-10-04T14:42:22.019300Z
Specifically, there isn't any handling of this except at the top level
emccue 2021-10-04T14:42:39.019500Z
so the complaint about try except clutter seems misplaced
You’re right @emccue - try-catch is a two rail system already 😄 I’ll try to rephrase and rethink this.
I have rewritten the “why”-part a bit: https://github.com/DavidVujic/pythonic-railway#why-railways
