README

Here is a talk the author gave that gives a little background

from Bartosz Milewskis book on Category Theory

and help from others, particularly

• @elbaulp https://github.com/elbaulp/Scala-Category-Theory

• @onlurking https://github.com/onlurking/category-theory-for-programmers

About

I want to learn Category Theory, Functional Programming, and Scala.

• scala - https://www.scala-lang.org/

• category theory - https://bartoszmilewski.com/2014/10/28/category-theory-for-programmers-the-preface/

• some FP - https://www.coursera.org/learn/progfun1

you-are-here

And to make sure we stand on the shoulders of giants:

(We can check them off as we absorb their smarticles)

• [X] others already doing this in scala https://github.com/elbaulp/Scala-Category-Theory

• [X] others compiling nice books https://github.com/onlurking/category-theory-for-programmers

• reading great blogs https://bartoszmilewski.com/2014/10/28/category-theory-for-programmers-the-preface/

• making cool courses https://www.coursera.org/learn/progfun1

• writing about languages they designed https://www.artima.com/shop/programming_in_scala_3ed

• letting you run excercises in your browser https://www.scala-exercises.org/fp_in_scala/getting_started_with_functional_programming

• writing books that need to be read https://www.manning.com/books/functional-programming-in-scala

• and the code that needs to be run https://github.com/fpinscala/fpinscala

Getting Started

PLEASE :heart: submit a pull request or issue, just to say hi :smiley:

Part 1

Merging https://github.com/elbaulp/Scala-Category-Theory and https://github.com/onlurking/category-theory-for-programmers so we can have one giant happy repo where we can

• Read Category Theory for Programmers

• Run, fiddle with, or extend the code in scala (but trying golang crossed my mind)
