Full-stack F# web applications: why you should care

This is a special day-time and last minute event, but F# MVP, Adam Granicz, will be in Chicago this coming Monday and would like to give a talk to the Chicago community.

Abstract
Building web applications in a single language has a number of advantages, but it also poses some challenges. In this talk, I will discuss how F# makes a great choice for full-stack web developers and introduce WebSharper, a .NET web ecosystem for writing robust, reactive, full-stack F# web applications.

Speaker
Adam Granicz is a 6x F# MVP and the author of five F# books, key F# community member and evangelist, and a regular speaker at developer conferences and workshops. Next to heading IntelliFactory, the F# company specializing in functional web and cloud applications and developer tools, he promotes the use of functional programming in industry at various events and venues. You can follow him on Twitter @granicz, or find him on FPish.net, the largest online functional programming community.
