Galaxus.Functional

Introduction

Galaxus.Functional is a package that aims to bring FP-style features to C#. Note though, that this is not true functional programming; this package contains some useful abstractions often found in functional languages.

The style is greatly inspired by the way Rust does this. If you have worked with Rust's std::option or std::result, you will probably feel right at home.

Abstractions

There currently are the following abstractions found inside Galaxus.Functional:

Option

A type used to explicitly mark the presence or absence of a value. This is an alternative to checking for null and is similar to e.g. Haskell's Maybe or Java's Optional.

Unit

A type for something that does not exist, similar to void - except that it can be returned and stored as a value.

Either

A type that can be one of several variants, sort of like a discriminated union or an enum with a stored value for each enum member.

Result

A type that explicitly propagates success or error to the caller, similar to used explicitly annotated exceptions. It can be seen as a specialization of an Either with the second variant being an error.

Contribute

No matter how small, we value every contribution! If you wish to contribute,

  1. Please create an issue first - this way, we can discuss the feature and flesh out the nitty-gritty details
  2. Fork the repository, implement the feature and submit a pull request
  3. Once the maintainers have released a new version, your feature will be part of the NuGet package

And always remember the golden rule for every contribution: Be excellent to each other!
