Clojure Destructuring Tutorial and Cheat Sheet

Clojure Destructuring Tutorial and Cheat Sheet

(Related blog post)

Simply put, destructuring in Clojure is a way extract values from a datastructure and bind them to symbols, without having to explicitly traverse the datstructure. It allows for elegant and concise Clojure code.

Take-home functional programming interview

This document is licensed CC0.

These are some questions to give a sense of what you know about FP. This is more of a gauge of what you know, it's not necessarily expected that a single person will breeze through all questions. For each question, give your answer if you know it, say how long it took you, and say whether it was 'trivial', 'easy', 'medium', 'hard', or 'I don't know'. Give your answers in Haskell for the questions that involve code.

Please be honest, as the interviewer may do some spot checking with similar questions. It's not going to look good if you report a question as being 'trivial' but a similar question completely stumps you.

Here's a bit more guidance on how to use these labels:

Proposal for lightning talk at ReactiveConf 2017: What is RNRF (react-native-router-flux)?

What is RNRF (react-native-router-flux)?

React Native is great product but lacks for stable, intuitive and easy navigation API during many years. Every year we see new, better API: Native Navigator, ex-Navigator, NavigationExperimental, ex-Navigation, wix native navigation, airbnb native navigation, ReactNavigation...

Once I've started React Native development, in 2015, I created RNRF - simple API for easy navigation. It was clear that better navigation instruments will come later but I didn't want to change my code again and again to switch for better API. Every new major version of RNRF is based on different navigation framework and mostly preserves own API.

Another goal was to represent all navigation flow within one place in clear, human-readable way - similar to iOS Storyboards concept. This way other engineers could understand your app flow faster.
