- ad 1) It was our goal from the start. Use just functions from Ramda to develop our own. I believe that Ramda is all you need for your utilities. And for myself is an extra challenge to learn think functionally.
- ad 2) I know several teams that use Ramda and Ramda-extension daily. As for myself, I use it for developing large intranet applications built on top of React and Redux.
I think that Ramda can save you a lot of lines of code so I use it. And when there something more general we try to include it here. Sadly lots of libs use either lodash or adjunct that develops a lot of their own code that is not necessary.
In that philosophy, we cooperate with other OS libs.

Besides that, it is also fun :) Some functions may be hard to understand and some may be totally unreadable. But the point is that you don't need to understand internals in a declarative way.
We just said to ourselves that it will be fun to write JavaScript library without the "JavaScript" :)
I think that maybe over 90% of functions comes from our production projects. We are aware of some performance impact of our point-free implementation, but it is not a big deal. If someone had concerns about the performance, then for loop will be always faster in javascript.

Hi, thank you for you question.
Have you read https://github.com/tommmyy/ramda-extension#why-to-choose-ramda-extension-over-other-libraries yet?
from ramda-extension.
@tommmyy thank you for the speedy reply. Yes I did read this before posting a comment. I think a few things are still unclear:
- what is the benefit of having this philosophy of using point-free Ramda functions? I can infer some benefits, but I think it would benefit the community if they come from authors and explicitly stated. It could be very unclear to beginners and frankly somewhat unclear for me as well.
- given above benefits how do we weight those and make a decision which library to use when on a practical day-to-day level?
Appreciate your help 🤝
