LambdaCon - funtastic code and people

The Italian conference on
Functional Programming

LambdaCon subjects

Sessions will show how to leverage the power of functional programming languages such as Scala, Haskell, Clojure, Erlang, F#...

Nonetheless the conference aims to instill the functional mindset in attendees so that they can use it as a tool even when programming with an object oriented language

Attendees will learn basic and advanced concepts and how to use FP in their everyday life

immutability, higher order functions, currying, continuation-passing, pattern matching, monads
DSLs, domain modeling, actor model, machine learning
multithreading, non-blocking IO, message passing, message queues, microservices, HTTP-based APIs, web applications, high availability, continuous delivery

Conference structure

The program runs across multiple tracks
Sessions may be given in the form of a talk or a workshop

TALK
A presentation conducted in a lecture format and focused on a single topic: a language, technique or tool as well as an experience report
Primarly led by the speaker, a talk should also include some discussion

WORKSHOP
A hands-on session, focused around a specific language, technique, tool or issue, in which participants learn linking theory and practice by coding along with the speaker and experimenting

A conference for people eager to know more about functional programming, combining talks with hands-on sessions to take your skills to the next level

LambdaCon is focused on learning the functional approach, understanding in which scenarios it is better to use FP, discovering what can be done with current languages and technologies and exploring current best practices

Network with other funatics, learn something new, share your knowledge and experiences and have a lot of fun
