Guide - Web Programming with F#

F# excels at building efficient, scalable and robust web solutions. Web programming is based around receiving a single HTTP request and replying with a result, which maps very well to a stateless, functional approach. Advantages to using F# for web programming include:

• Fast - F# code execution is fast, using native code generation from scripted or project code

• Succinct - F# is concise, readable and type-safe, for fast development of robust web solutions

• Reactive and Scalable - F# asynchronous programming simplifies scalable, reactive web programming

• Interoperable - F# interoperates seamlessly with languages such as C#, JavaScript and TypeScript

• JavaScript-ready - F# is JavaScript-ready through WebSharper and Fable

• Open-source and cross-platform
