Ramda is a functional programming library for JavaScript that emphasizes immutability and side-effect-free functions. It provides a set of utility functions that enable developers to write clean, concise, and declarative code by focusing on function composition and data transformation. Ramda's functions are curried by default, allowing for easy partial application and function chaining.
Compared to other utility libraries like Lodash, Ramda is more tailored towards functional programming paradigms and encourages a more functional style of coding. It also offers features like automatic currying and data-last argument order. Ramda is actively maintained and continues to be a popular choice for developers looking to embrace functional programming concepts in their JavaScript projects.
