Mastering Functional Programming With JavaScript
PacktPub and Michael Rosata
The code in this repo is used in the video courses created by Packt Publishing: "Mastering Functional Programming with JavaScript" (all courses are independant, but build into one final app and so there are different branches for all three). You are currently looking at the master branch right now. The directions below should apply to you regardless which course you purchansed. However, for the best experience, go-to the branch for the course you purchased:
- Learn to Write Functional JavaScript volume-one
- Build Declarative Apps using Functional JavaScript volume-two
- Mastering App Concerns with Functional JavaScript volume-three
On the command line you may easily switch between different volumes
git checkout volume-one
git pullThe second volume "Declarative Apps using Functional Javascript", is on branch volume-two
git checkout volume-twoThe master branch could be useful as a practice project. Feel free to use master as your base for developing functional programming skills in the future. The other branches are specific to volumes in the course.
To follow along with the videos, switch to the corresponding branch for that volume. IE: git checkout volume-one will bring you to a version of the project with all the starter files for Mastering Functional JavaScript. Both volume-one and volume-two are both available.
Setting Up the Project
You should have Git and Node installed on your computer already. Additionally I recommend using yarn for package management, but it's not required.
1 - The first step is to download the project and move into the project directory.
# Clone the repo with either the HTTPS web address
git clone https://github.com/mrosata/packt-mastering-fp.git
# or if you have SSH setup for Git
git clone [email protected]:mrosata/packt-mastering-fp.git
cd packt-mastering-jp2 - After you have cloned the repo and changed into the project directory, move to the branch you want to work in and install the project dependencies using either npm or yarn.
git checkout volume-one
# using yarn, installation is one simple command:
yarn
# if using NPM to install, it's still simple:
npm install3 - When the install is complete, you should be able to run the dev server on http://localhost:5000.
# Start dev server through yarn
yarn serve
# Or run dev server using
npm run serveAdditional Information
Please see the wiki for additional info, including changes that may be on the way.
The dev server should live reload in the browser anytime you make changes to a file in the "app" directory. Any changes you make to the HTML build/index.html file won't trigger a reload, but you shouldn't need to touch that. The main entry file for the project is app/entry.js, but rather than working in that file, try to think of app/index.js as your "main" file
The dev server actually runs on "localhost:5000", if that is not desirable then you can configure the HOST and PORT values at the top of the webpack.config.js file. For instance, making the port "0.0.0.0" would allow you to view the site on other machines in your network.
