More and more of the most ambitious and freshest projects, meant to be developed by larger teams of developers, are being written in PureScript. For a developer to be part of a lucrative and exciting team like this or lead one as an invaluable agent of a leading company, that developer must have a solid understanding of PureScript. In this course, PureScript 1 Fundamentals, you'll learn the fundamentals of programming applications in PureScript 0.14. First, you’ll learn the basic syntax of PureScript, including creating records, type, functions, objects, and arrays. Next, you’ll work with the more advanced constructs available in PureScript, which may be unfamiliar to the less seasoned developer, including pattern matching, type classes, and the applicative functor. Finally, you’ll learn the most advanced PureScript techniques necessary for the cultivation of a practical PureScript toolset. These techniques are all related to effects, including the Effect monad, asynchronous effects, and the FFI (foreign function interface.)
