This is exactly the resources I've been looking for to advance my understanding of how to accomplish certain things in FP before trying to learn it wholesale.

I have his book Domain Modelling Made Functional as it comes very highly recommended. I haven't gotten to it yet, but I'm even more excited for it now after watching this.

Scott Wlaschin is one of my favourite tech speakers of all time. Every single talk I've seen by him has been excellent in explaining rather confusing topics in a really simple and innovative manner. His material was my goto source when I was learing functional programming and I'm not sure if I would have ever gotten even excited about it if it wasn't for one of his talks.

I wish I could find videos of people actually writing complex functional programming code. These talks seem to just reiterate the same things and all example code is too simple for me to be able to visualize using it in our code base to the extreme that they are talking about

Many videos exist on writing servers using FP libraries. A few search keywords for Scala: ZIO, Cats, fs2.

A beginner tutorial using a command-line application as case study:

Is there a non video version of this please? Would be quicker to read an article than a 1 hour talk.

Slightly more info, but doesn't compare to the video.

I hear you. But don't forget about the ability to 2x videos. It's almost exclusively how I watch educational content (but you have to intensely focus)

Even 1.25,or 1.5 helps, with less cognitive squeeze

There are slides from older conferences, but the author points out that he goes through the patterns as fast as he can in the videos.

Be-careful when learning "FP" that you're not just learning your chosen language's idea of FP

It can often be a large investment to learn these concepts only to find it's only scala or Haskell or w/e does FP "that way" is frustrating

When starting out I recommend checking if the pattern exists in many different FP language types first

Thank you for this, very lovely and straight forward
