Building a fully "functional" F# web API
How does a "functional programmer" go about building a web API in F#? How does it differ from "object oriented" solutions in C#?
In this talk we'll go over just enough concepts of the functional programming paradigm and apply them to flesh out a fully functional web API.
We will touch on topics like immutability, partial application, union types, pattern matching, functors, applicatives and much more juicy functional concepts. Instead of boring theory we'll immediately apply what we learn in our web API.
You'll leave this session with a better understanding of what "functional programming" really means, both in theory and in practice.
Technical team coaching
In this session, we dive into the amazing world of technical coaching for agile teams. First, we take a look at the wider context of complex systems, organizations and agile teams and how you can view change in that context.
