Here’s an interesting read concerning unit testing with excessive (or just enough?) mocking. How do you unit test when there’s data access involved? #csharp #fsharp

More than 50% of the #fsharp code I produce is now created by Copilot. I only adjust basic things like switching tuples for records, or I write the first example and it does the rest. It’s like code reviewing a very talented developer. However it is still more like a car that needs a driver (dumb!).

#fsharp rocks! Here's a new entry into an already crowded arena of F# testing frameworks.
This one is called Sprout and it is a DSL for writing BDD-style tests in F#.
It is inspired by Jasmine and uses computation expressions with few, composable, abstractions.

@cardgames-io.bsky.social is the ShitHead game buggy? It seems to allow invalid computer moves. And sometimes doesn’t allow valid player moves.

What I enjoy a lot with F# is that when I didn’t get something quite right it is easy to rework the code. It feels like painting (easy to fix a missed spot) vs pulling out hammered nails (i.e. C# or most other langs, ok not always this extreme but often more effort).

It’s good to see new analysers coming out in Ionide. Apparently I’ve been using parenthesis unnecessarily (C# habit?). Code now cleaned up!

@fluxcd.bsky.social absolutely loving flux ❤️ now trying out the resource set of v2.5. Magical 💫

Maybe this has already been published here, but I found it an interesting usage of Fable. Siren is a library to use F# for generating Mermaid diagrams. Personally I’d love to have something like this for PlantUML. There’s a nice blogpost too. #fsharp

I love being part of #fsharp. No community is like this one. We are blessed ❤️

Those who want to promote #fsharp seem to be missing a point. First of all, the likely audience is C# devs. Forget other langs, they won’t come. Second, look at what is important to C# devs. Type safety? Uncool. Refactoring? Uncool. Web development? Cool! JSON/SQL? Cool! M-services? Cool! What else?
