Sanctuary VS TypeScript

SEEKING WORK • Berlin, Germany • Remote or on-site • Software developer

I'm a software developer with 13 years of experience. I love leveraging software to save people time. I have a background in (visual) design and consider design to be crucial to the development of all software (even software with no visible interface).

I have deep knowledge of JavaScript. I have also worked professionally with TypeScript, Python, and Haskell. I enjoy working with HTML and CSS. I know React, and I'm looking for an opportunity to learn htmx.

I have created Sanctuary (https://sanctuary.js.org/) and several other libraries. :)

Author of Sanctuary (https://sanctuary.js.org/) and several other libraries. I love writing parsers and interpreters. I enjoy writing shell scripts more than is healthy (ShellCheck is amazing). I love hyperlinks and discovering web standards.

I wonder if this will be something that functional libraries like Ramda [1] or Sanctuary [2] will be able to benefit from.

One of the reasons these libraries don't work so well with TS is that it doesn't have ML-style whole program inference and hence doesn't work so well with patterns like currying. Hegel seems more capable in that regard.

Fortunately, as it has been shown in this article, it’s definitely possible to use functional programming with plain JavaScript. However, if you really want to dive deeper into this paradigm while using JavaScript, you’ll probably want to use some already existing functional libraries such as Sanctuary, Fluture, Ramda and others.

Hey everyone, I put together a [Cheat Sheet](https://github.com/identinet/sanctuary-cheat-sheet) for [Sanctuary](https://sanctuary.js.org/) that I hope is helpful to you.

Learning Curve and Developer Tooling sCrypt is an embedded Domain Specific Language (eDSL) based on TypeScript. It is strictly a subset of TypeScript, so all sCrypt code is valid TypeScript. TypeScript is chosen as the host language because it provides an easy, familiar language (JavaScript), but with type safety. There’s an abundance of learning materials available for TypeScript and thus sCrypt, including online tutorials, courses, documentation, and community support. This makes it relatively easy for beginners to start learning. It also has a vast ecosystem with numerous libraries and frameworks (e.g., React, Angular, Vue) that can simplify development and integration with Web2 applications.

As a JavaScript or TypeScript developer, you might have come across the terms type and interface when working with complex data structures or defining custom types. While both serve similar purposes, they have distinct characteristics that influence when to use them. In this blog post, we'll delve into the differences between types and interfaces in TypeScript, providing examples to aid your understanding.

TypeScript helps you in many ways in the context of a JavaScript app. It makes it easier to consume interfaces of any type.

In this guide, we'll be extracting information from Amazon product pages using the power of TypeScript in combination with the Cheerio and Crawlee libraries. We'll explore how to retrieve and extract detailed product data such as titles, prices, image URLs, and more from Amazon's vast marketplace. We'll also discuss handling potential blocking issues that may arise during the scraping process.

Familiarity with TypeScript, React and Next.js

On top of that, Vite’s compiler is super fast, supports Typescript (which we of course used), and built just fine on our host, which was Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare Pages is a super fast static website hosting service by Cloudflare, which allows your site to take advantage of their global CDN to make sure your site is as close to your users as possible. It supports nearly any JS framework you could want to use for your site, and can even host plan old HTML if you’re of that persuasion.

Popmotion prioritizes simplicity and ease of use in its design. Written in TypeScript and compatible with any API that accepts numerical input, it offers a straightforward API and supports major browsers. Popmotion's architecture powers animations in Framer Motion and can be extended through plugins.
