Notes

Abstract

Are you building something cool with a friendly functional programming language? Bring your projects for a laid-back show and tell session! We'll look at real-world code in languages like Gleam, OCaml, Elm, Kotlin, and other functional languages that emphasize type safety without unnecessary complexity.

Share a piece of code you're proud of, a thorny problem you solved elegantly, or simply come to see how others are using functional programming to build practical things. We'll explore patterns that work well across different languages and discuss how type systems and functional features help us write more reliable software.

Whether you're a functional programming enthusiast or just curious about these languages, join us for an interactive session focused on real projects and practical experiences. No deep theory required - just genuine examples and friendly discussion about building things that work.

This is a participatory session - if you have a project to share, great! If not, come with your questions and curiosity. We're happy to meet you!
