This talk would include details on Getting started with Pit, using the tools and a simple walkthrough project using a single page app + ServiceStack.NET for creating tasks.

In this talk, I will give an experience report on implementing FPish, a new community site for functional programmers; the issues we encountered; and the way we solved some of these challenges. FPish is implemented entirely in F# as a massive WebSharper s...

Are you confused about the messaging from Microsoft around F#? Are you wishing a feature would be supported in the language or IDE and not sure why it's not? Join us for our first F# Community Roundtable to discuss what we, the community, can do to advance...

The .NET framework provides several ways of interacting with I/O out of the box. These work great until you need to maximize performance over network I/O. Dave Thomas has demonstrated that using SocketAsyncEventArgs rather than the Asynchronous Programming...

Learn about the use of F# in the next version of Castle MonoRail with Hamilton Veríssimo "Hammett" de Oliveira.

Dave Thomas will present on his experiments with F# for server-side programming including the fracture-io project, a high-performance socket pipeline library meant to offer a range of useful features similar to those offered in 0mq and Akka.

In this talk we'll look at when and how to define and automate Acceptance Tests from both a business and development point of view. Focusing on the business benefits of specifying scenarios in plain English and automating them with F#. The talk will includ...

Simon Cousins, Talbott Crowell, Howard Mansell, and Robert Pickering discussing F# in the Enterprise.

F# already allows you to write applications with much less code and fewer bugs, but wouldn't it be nice to improve productivity even more by creating/using custom F# application (a.k.a. multi-project) templates and NuGet packages? In this talk we will disc...

One of the key concepts of functional programming is compositionality – the fact that we can build complex software using several basic “building blocks” and just a few ways of combining them. In this talk, I’ll demonstrate how we can teach this concept us...

Samin Ishtiaq taught a 1 hour crash course in functional programming to 10/11 year olds at a local Cambridge primary school recently. The course leads up to calculating areas and volumes, which is what the students were learning in maths at that time. This...

WebSharper sitelets provide the essential mechanism to encapsulate entire websites as F# values. In this talk, I will present how you can use sitelets to develop dynamic, template-based, markup-less web applications with WebSharper that seamlessly combine...

In this presentation Robert Pickering will take a look at the concept of the tree data structure, and we’ll see how trees are everywhere we look in programing — from XML to lisp, and passing by indexes in RMDS. He will first look at the various different w...

In this talk, Adam Granicz will present the main motivations for WebSharper, highlight some of its capabilities, and demonstrate how it can jump start developer productivity in creating robust client-based web applications entirely in F#. We will briefly ...

Don will talk about the templates, patterns and practices for Silverlight, Xaml and Web programming with F# or mixed F#/C# projects, using Visual Studio 2010 and the Online Templates. There might be a few other topics thrown in. We’ll also have an open Q&A...

Ryan Riley will introduce functional programming using examples from both C# and F#. This presentation will be great for those coming from a C# or VB.NET background who are unfamiliar with the functional paradigm. If you already know functional programming...

Alex Pedenko (@kolosy) will show how to build web applications in F# using the Bistro framework (http://bistroframework.org/).

Working with F# or just curious as to who's doing what? Join us Tuesday, May 18th, 2010 to find out what people are doing with F#. Chris Marinos (F# Koans), the Bistro team, and YOU will have the chance to present and discuss practical uses of F# "in the w...

If you've ever been interested in writing a full fledged compiler in F# then this is the talk for you. This talk will go over the FSMiniJava project, a compiler converting a subset of the Java language into x86 assembler and then producing working executab...

One area where F# excels beyond other languages is its language oriented programming features. These are especially useful for the testing and analysis of existing code. In this intermediate to advanced talk, Richard will demonstrate how F# can be used to ...

Steffan Forkmann will present on some of the projects he's worked on, including Fake, FunctionalNHibernate, etc.

Ryan Riley will introduce functional programming using examples from both C# and F#. This presentation will be great for those coming from a C# or VB.NET background who are unfamiliar with the functional paradigm. If you already know functional programming...
