Fp-ts: how to use your doc to learn

[baldegit]

Hello,
I am currently learning the fp-ts, and I find your repository.
But after reading your readme, I am a little lost, I can not know where to start and I downloaded the project but I do not know what to do with it. Do you have advice for me ??

Thank you in advance

Docs only contain the API reference and some examples, so in order to use this library you are supposed to have a basic understanding of functional programming patterns and a basic knowledge of the most common data types and type classes.

A couple of introductory resources on functional programming

• Fantas, Eel, and Specification (JavaScript) http://www.tomharding.me/2017/03/03/fantas-eel-and-specification/
• Mostly adequate guide to FP (JavaScript) https://github.com/MostlyAdequate/mostly-adequate-guide
• FP list combinators demo with fp-ts (TypeScript) https://twitter.com/OliverJAsh/status/1035559910170402816
• Jargon from the functional programming world in simple terms https://github.com/hemanth/functional-programming-jargon

I also wrote a free book, an introduction to functional programming, unfortunately is in italian (*) https://github.com/gcanti/functional-programming

(*) by the way if someone is willing to help me with the english translation, please let me know, I don't have the bandwidth to start a translation (and besides, my english is pretty ugly...)
