Any way to use immutable.js with lodash?

Question

I'm using immutable.js with my flux application. It is very useful and gives performance boost. But what actually makes me sad is the fact that I can't use lodash together with it. Lodash provides great API with ton of useful functions, so I wonder maybe there is a way to get them together to work for me?

Answer 1

You could use Ramda if you want immutability and side-effect free functions.

The library provides useful functions similar to lodash but in a functional programming style that never mutates user data.

Consider this React example using the flatten function in Ramda using ES6 syntax.

import { flatten } from 'ramda';  

const users = ['Steve Jobs', ['Steve Wozniak']];
const flatUsers = flatten(users);

// returns ['Steve Jobs', 'Steve Wozniak']
