Scripting, pure and functional

TopShell is a functional language through which you can SSH into a server, grap a file, fill in some data from the internet and then create a live graphical plot of the result that changes whenever the file is written to.

The goal is to be an alternative to the terminal and shell for many common tasks.

Statically typed, purely functional, asynchronous and reactive. And a prototype.

Come for a demonstration, write a little script yourself and see how it's made. Share your ideas on how to make the future of small scripts a functional one.

We have set up a collaboration with Prosa, who generously offered to provide a location for our regular meetups. Please see Prosa's Calendar for more details: Prosa Calendar (https://www.prosa.dk/kalender/hele-kalenderen/)

The ADA meeting room fits about 25 people and if we need more space, we can use the canteen (PASCAL), which has a capacity of at most 50 (fire regulation).

Regards,

Ramón and Joakim
