Lisp dialect or library that have monads and lenses
Clojure is a partially lazy, functional lisp, that has some very neat abstractions underlying its core library. It doesn't have explicit monads builtin, but here's a great implementation that also has some educational material: https://github.com/clojure/algo.monads

Monads for Clojure Programmers
You can have monads in clojure (eg: http://funcool.github.io/cats/latest/#monad) but the problem I see is that they are infectious and kinda force you to use them everywhere. In other languages, it's more palatable because the compiler checks for types, and normally there is some sugar to make it easier on the eyes.

Starting out with a Typescript role, any killer library recommendations I should know about?
Oh yeah, I usually find a similar library when I'm writing a program; e.g. funcool/cats in clojure
What are some alternatives?
