Functional Programming for Web Development

What's this mystical thing called Functional Programming? Is it crazy to believe that we have been programming in such a way that actually makes it much more difficult to test? More difficult to have consistent results?

Join us by "taking the red pill" and learn what exactly is Functional Programming and how it can make you a better programmer. We will use the Elixir programming language, which is built on top of Erlang, another functional programming language, to show you how you can have consistent, working code, that's well tested and uses your computer/servers to their full potential. You will see how functional programming is actually perfect for web development and see how it fits the life cycle of a web request much better than Object Oriented Programming.

What we'll cover:

What is Functional Programming? Why does Functional Programming fit so well with web development Who should attend?

Those of you who are looking to level up in your programming knowledge Those of you who think there's a better method to get things done and keep your sanity
