##### Tried and true Haskell functions for use in Javascript
.oO( or at least as close as we can get )
---
### Description
I sure had a fun time when I could just use Haskell everyday back in college. I
miss the REPL and the familiar functions. I sure wish I had all that stuff, now
that I'm doing JS all the time..... I said before all of the sudden, BOOM,
Haskind was born!
This project is an exploration into porting functions common to Haskellers, into
the wild and typeless world of Javascript.
### Get Started
You can get the functions from npm using:
`npm install --save haskind`
Or, for a pre loaded interactive REPL, install [hkci][hkci], It comes with the
latest release of Haskind built in.
```
$> npm install --save hkci
$> hkci
```
### Usage
Require your favorite Haskell modules through the import system.
```javascript
import { Data } from 'haskind';
const { Just, Nothing, catMaybes } = Data.Maybe;
const { reverse } = Data.List
const maybes = [ Just(3), Nothing(), Just(5) ]
console.log(reverse(catMaybes(maybes))); // [ 5, 3 ]
```
### Note
This library is still in heavy development. Some functions/tricks are definitely
missing. Things like `fmap`, which can be applied across multiple types, has
still not been totally fleshed out.
### Inspiration
Haskind was heavily inspired by [Ramda][Ramda], [Lodash][Lodash] and
[Haskell.Base][Haskell].
