Functional data that adapts to change

on YouTube ↗45m

" summary

Functional patterns become incremental: the same map/filter/sum pipeline runs over FSharp.Data.Adaptive and records deltas so removing one item avoids redoing 10,000 computations. The library exposes adaptive DOM nodes (adaptive maps of attributes, adaptive lists of children) so views are diffs of deltas, not full recomputes. The approach powers high‑performance graphics and a adaptive scene graph (Aardvark) used for massive visualizers, supports C# callers, and is production‑ready around version 1.0.
