What we’re about

Meet others interested in functional programming and share your knowledge and experiences. Find support for your first foray into FP if you're new to it.

Functional programming is a niche community and there is much common ground between languages, so we welcome discussions about Scala, Haskell, Clojure, Erlang, F# and any others in the FP spirit. You can present the influence of functional patterns in JavaScript, Swift, Rust and more—it's about the concepts more than the language!

This is a new group so we will learn the format that works best over time. I suspect the community in BKK is small, so we may not find a speaker to present a talk every time, we might instead have interactive group sessions like show-and-tell introducing one another to our favorite languages and libraries, articles and books we've read, and so on.

We seek to foster a welcoming cross-cultural community and will consider presentations in English and Thai. If you have an idea for a topic you'd like to present or see, please share it with the organizers!
