Details

Rapture is a growing collection of libraries for common programming tasks like I/O, JSON & XML processing and cryptography, with a focus on beautiful, concise and intuitive code. Rapture packs a lot of power into a single line of code, and Jon will race through fifty of Rapture's smartest one-liners at a rate of one-a-minute, showing you how easy it is to perform everyday file and network I/O and structured data operations, without compromising type safety. All the code in the talk will be easy for beginners to understand, but more advanced developers may also learn some new tricks, so there should be something for everyone!

After the talk, Jon will have an interactive Rapture coding session, and will be happy to answer questions about Rapture, though he has been involved in the recently-announced Typelevel Scala fork since its inception, so will be glad to talk about that, or any other Scala topic he knows about!

Many thanks to ti&m for hosting this event, and many thanks to Stephanie Krappl and Sara Weigelt for the organization, as well as other people at ti&m we have not (yet) met personally.
