FPfriendly

FPfriendly refers to a programming concept or design philosophy that emphasizes making code more amenable to functional programming paradigms. While not a formal language or framework, FPfriendly suggests that certain programming practices, language features, or architectural choices can significantly ease the adoption and implementation of functional programming techniques within a codebase or development environment. This might include favoring immutability, promoting the use of pure functions, supporting first-class functions, or providing constructs for composition and declarative programming. A codebase described as FPfriendly would likely benefit from the advantages of functional programming such as increased testability, easier reasoning about code, and reduced side effects. It does not necessarily mean the entire codebase is strictly functional, but rather that it is structured in a way that allows for functional approaches to be integrated effectively. This can be particularly valuable in languages that support both imperative and functional styles, allowing developers to leverage the strengths of each. The goal is to create a more robust and maintainable system by making functional programming principles more accessible.
