> I am still trying to figure out how to best use functional programming with JavaScript.

IME avoid recursion, use immutability in the large while avoiding in local scope beyond a simple .map.filter chain, and on the backend I allow myself fp-ts to have sane error handling (I assumed TypeScript there but I'd just not ever use vanilla JS nowadays).

With that said I'd really, really rather use a compile to JS lang that does the optimizations for you, specially for frontend use cases.
