Extreme Reusability with Functional Programming & Lodash
There's many ways that people write code. While every coding style has its own strengths & weaknesses, all priotize that the code is reusable, testable, readable and functional (works).
import { flow, map, get, add, reduce } from 'lodash/fp'
const getScore = get('score')
export const countUserScores = flow(
map(getScore),
reduce(add)(0),
)
The code above is not only extremely reusable (composed functions) but also elegant. It takes an array of user objects with a score and counts them.
Over the course of my professional career I've come to appreciate the simple nature of functional programming and the inherent testability (no side effects).
