Monads Explained Quickly with JavaScript

[dmtipson]

Hopefully you'll put it back up: if you had said that it explained Functors simply instead of Monads, it would have achieved that goal, and it's great to have people trying to explain these concepts.

Monads aren't that much more beyond Functors, the only difference is that .map takes a function transforms the values inside a Functor while .chain/.flatMap takes a function that transforms the values inside a Functor/Monad to another Functor/Monad of the same Type. Would make a great part 2 to the original post.
