Hey folks,

Glad to see Dustin's good post get some visibility here :)

If anyone is interested in learning F#, there are some resources available:

F# docs index (has multiple guides for specific editors and a comprehensive overview of the language): https://docs.microsoft.com/dotnet/fsharp/

F# on JavaScript with Fable: https://fable.io/docs/

More F# in the browser with WebSharper: https://try.websharper.com/

F# on Azure Notebooks (a hosted Jupyter notebook service that's free): https://notebooks.azure.com/Microsoft/projects/2018-Intro-FS...

And of course, the now legendary (at least among the F# community), F# for Fun and Profit: https://fsharpforfunandprofit.com/




Great thing about this article is that it treats C# with respect, even as it lambasts it :) Good examples real world situations, no exaggerations. FSharp For Fun and Profit often uses straw-man implementations of C# to compare against, which I think does harm to the argument.


Thanks, I'll add these links to my blog post later tonight!
