This is a conversation with Ankit Solanki, co-founder at Clear about using Functional Programming in production at Clear (formerly Cleartax).
Baishampayan Ghose (BG), founder at TeamOhana will interview Ankit about Clear’s experience with F#. BG will cover the following questions in this conversation:
- What did Clear use before swtiching to F#?
- How did Clear evaluate F# before deciding to go with it? How did the leadership buy-in to move to F# i.e., what case was made/evidence presented for switching to F#?
- What were the performance gains after switching to F#?
- What did Clear do to ramp up existing staff on FP mindset (trainings or courses or books and so on)? What has Clear’s hiring experience been?
- What pain points or roadblocks did Clear have to deal with on account of opting for F#?
- Did Clear evaluate using any FP framework/language for the frontend? TypeScript + React is a combination used very widely.
- In hindsight, what would Clear do differently, if it could do it all over again?
