Learn Purescript, Ruby and Webstorm

PureScript is a small strongly, statically typed language inspired by Haskell and compiles to JavaScript. This means no run-time errors, human readable output, ADTs, and pattern matching (and more!) all at your fingertips.

In this course we will use an [online editor](http://try.purescript.org/) to show basics into PureScript with an instant visual representation, investigate the type system and ways to reason about common programing problems with PureScript. 

As we explore the type system and common problems that are faced when programming in PureScript we will learn plenty of functional programming concepts as PureScript is a purely functional language.

In this lesson, we'll walk through installing a custom color scheme into our [WebStorm](https://www.jetbrains.com/webstorm/) IDE. Dayle Rees's [daylerees/colour-schemes](https://github.com/daylerees/colour-schemes/blob/master/jetbrains/peacocks-in-space.icls) has a great collection of themes ready to install in different formats for various editors.

For this example, we will install the [Peacocks In Space](https://github.com/daylerees/colour-schemes/blob/master/jetbrains/peacocks-in-space.icls) theme into an OS X [WebStorm 11 EAP](https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/WI/WebStorm+EAP) installation. _Note: This process will be very similar (or identical) for previous versions of WebStorm and other editors in the [JetBrain's family of editors](https://www.jetbrains.com/)._
