-Why the equality operator might change the world of programming 
+Pure Rendering? Thou shalt not use assignments
 
-In programming the equals character is used a lot ('='); it literally ties all our code together. JavaScript for example provides three different operators based on the equals character, '=', '==' and '===' . The first one denotes assignment, the other two compare values. Yet none of those express the mathematical meaning of equality. That is sad, because programming would be fundamentally more easy if this wasn't the case.
+Last week Guillermo Raunch wrote in an excellent [blog post](http://rauchg.com/2015/pure-ui/) that the UI should be a pure function of the application state.
+And he is right. Pure user interfaces are easy to reason about, to mock, to test. A pure UI can be described as
 
+UI = view(application_state)
+
+Where the view transform the data in something that would be put on the screen. This is also one of the core fundamentals of a user interface libraries such as React.
+However, once you start to program the above pattern, you will soon discover that the UI *isn't* a function of the application_state, it *was* a function of the application state.
+
+Now how did this happen? It's all the fault of the assignment operator. In mathematics, the equals sign (`=`) expresses an equation. The left-hand side is an isomorphic equivalence of the right hand sight. That means that every occurrence of `UI` can be read anywhere as `view(application_state)`, and if application_state morphs, so does the UI.
+
+Yet, in programming, the equal sign denotes assignment. Meaning; reduce the right hand site to a value and assign it to the left hand side. Superficially, this seems to be the same. But the problem is that with assignments the UI isn't an isomorph of the view anymore, its a one time copy! This means that if the application state changes, you have to carefully reapply the view function to the UI.
+
+This might not sound as a big deal, but actually it is. First, its awkward to state each time the application state changes that the UI should be updated. In event handlers like the one below it becomes painfully clear that our UI isn't a pure function of state*-over-time*:
+
+function onDeleteButtonClick (todoItem) {
+	allTodos.remove(todoItem);
+	redrawTodoList();
+}
+
+Besides, creating a fresh view from the application state is [expensive](https://www.mendix.com/tech-blog/making-react-reactive-pursuit-high-performing-easily-maintainable-react-apps/) for any decently sized (web) app. So in our event handlers we take guesses which parts of the UI needs an update, or we start attaching events to certain state updates and start listening to those events in our UI components. Bye bye pure function. Welcome, boilerplate filled spaghetti code.
+
+So first we define nice relationship between UI and state. Then it appears that this relationship is just a farce; it isn't maintained by the runtime and so you, as a developer have the honorable job to fix this relationship every time something changes. That doesn't sound like a healthy relationship! It sounds like you should have studied mediation! Can we fix this issue at the root? Can we fix the assignment operator? Can we just write:
+
+UI <= view(application_state)
+
+Where '<=' establishes a relationship between `UI` and the application of `view` to `application_state`. Note that the '<='' operator nicely mirrors the '=>' lambda operator. A function produces a value which you need to propagate carefully through your app, but true isomorphic equality just 'pulls' data towards you.
+
+Central though: user interface code will be of higher quality if we shift from one-time assignment operators to isomorphic relationships between data
+
+Sadly, we don't have such an operator, so the code we write is flooded with statements like "notify that function", "emit this event", "repaint that part of the UI", "now send this update to the server". The complexity and fragility of our apps would be largely reduced if we would no longer write stuff like that.
+
+Is it possible to have an isomorphic equality operator? Yes definitely. Spreadsheet applications like Microsoft Excel do understand correctly what the equality operator is all about.
+I strongly believe that it is for that specific reason why Excel is one of the most successful software products of all times. Because in spreadsheets, one can just state:
+
+C100 = SUM(B2:B99) / A1
+
+In Excel the equals sign establishes a proper relationship, where C100 will follow any changes that happen in the B column or A1. Awesome, right? The solution to proper programming is in our midst already for decades!
+
+Functional Reactive Programming is the discipline that applies the principle of reacting to changing data structures to the programming field. However its approach is a bit cumbersome as it expresses relationships as streams. So basically, it is for people way smarter than me. But alas, the direction is good and it does the job. In existing FRP libraries like RxJS or Bacon our relationship would look a bit like:
+
+budgetStream = creditCardLimitStream.combine(reservedMoneyStream, (ccl, rm) => ccl — rm);
+
+So, can we leave all the fluff away and observe expressions instead of streams, like in Excel? Yes we can! The [MOBservable library](https://npmjs.org/package/MOBservable) can do precisely that trick for us. In MOBservable, the syntactical equivalent of 'value <= expr ' is 'value = mobservable(() => expr)'. This is a bit easier to grok, especially because all data dependencies inside expressions are managed automatically. Well, then show me the thing! Well OK, glad you asked, just open a terminal in an empty directory and copy+paste the following command to get started (assuming you have [nodejs](https://nodejs.org) installed:
+
+(yes ""| npm init) && npm install mobservable --save && node -e "global.mobservable=require('mobservable'); require('repl').start({ useGlobal: true});"
+
+There it is! Your JavaScript environment with MOBservable pre-loaded. Now just type (or copy-paste):
+
+var state = mobservable.props({
+    nrOfSeats : 500,
+    reservations : [],
+    seatsLeft : function() { return this.nrOfSetas - this.reservations.length; }
+});
+
+var ui = mobservable(function() {
+    return "<div>" + state.seatsLeft +"</div>";
+});
+
+ui.observe(console.log, true);
+state.reservations[0] = "Michel";
+state.reservations.push("You?");
+state.nrOfSeats = 750;
+
+Output:
+note: the output was atomic, each transition in the state results in only one view, there is no rendering where the seatsLeft doesn't match the amount of reservations
+
+second: just changes the nrOfsetas generates a new ui, although its value was used inside the view only indirectly (through seatsLeft)
+
+Did you see how it printed first '<div> 499 </div>', '<div> 498 </div>' and finally '<div> 748 </div>' automatically? That is because our view function was applied to the state automatically whenever a piece of state (that was actually used in the UI) changed! The `props` function created a reactive state for us and we defined the ui as pure function of that state. Finally we pushed any changes in the ui to the console. (That is needed because consoles are not reactive, so observing the ui creates a bridge there). Syntactically it is not perfect, but well, it works in any existing JavaScript environments out-of-the-box and that is worth something as well. And MOBserable does this all this automatically (and atomically) for objects, classes, arrays, functions, simple scalars...
+
+Interested in more? Take a look at a less contrived example like a real Todo app[TODO: link, add to todo app], or play on in the terminal. For those who are wondering how this relationship magic works.. thats for a next blog post. As is an introduction about how to combine these concepts with existing UI frameworks like React or jQuery. For now I have other relationships to take care of... ;-)
+
+Tl;dr: Applications development will become less error prone and more robust to changes if we reduce the amount of local state through our apps by introducing isomorphic equality. That is; an equality operator that stands the test of time. Applying transparent functional reactive programming will get us there.
+
+Oh, and if you are wondering whether you can apply the MOBservable library to your own project right now, the library is currently used in an enterprise scale app, to manage the complete state, back-end integration and especially the view of a data intensive React application (about ~30kloc) while tracking the relationships between the ui and thousands of objects and expressions.
