by Ygor Castor

Imagine that you are all happy developing a new functionality, writing codes and testing, you are happy! You are confident! There's no way that this thing will fail in production, you say to yourself... ohhh how wrong you are, at the first minute in production you get punched in the face with an unexpected runtime exception. THE HORROR! THE SADNESS! You curse your past self for choosing such an annoying area to work, asking if there is a way that you can reduce de suffering of the unexpected errors. Weeeeeell, what if i tell you that you can! In this talk we will learn a little bit on how the functional programming paradigm can help you to write a safer software, with less to none side-effects and natively concurrent safe.
