Object-Oriented Programming has well established design principles, such as SOLID. For many developers architecture and functional programming are at odds with each other: they don’t know how their existing tricks of the trade convert into functional design. This problem becomes worse as hybrid languages such as Java 8 or Scala become common. We’ll talk about how functional programming helps you implement the SOLID principles, and how a functional mindset can actually help you achieve cleaner and simpler OO design.
