Almost exclusively. Was doing Scala for 5+ years, followed by F# now for the past 5 years. But im also doing React and sometimes node.js etc when needed.

I really love FP, although i tend to write more pragmatic code, and follow the principle of "functional core, imperative shell" rather than using imo overly complicated free monads and the likes.
