Lenses and Prisms in Swift
17:10/17:50
The concept of functional Lens has become pretty popular in functional programming circles, and there are already good contributions for applying lenses to other, traditionally imperative/OO contexts. I’d like to offer a more in depth view on why lenses can be useful in Swift, and also talk about an associated concept called Prism. Let’s consider some practical problems and confront an idiomatic/imperative approach to the one based on lenses and prisms.
