foobar io #4: Structured Concurrency, concepts and applications

🚀 foobar.i/o gets fork’ed!
Join us at XM headquarters (📍Michalakopoulou 80, Athens) on June 17th for our next open meetup — this time, we’re diving into Structured Concurrency. 🧵

One of our own, Filippos Papadopoulos, will walk us through the principles of structured concurrency with hands-on examples and references to how this is tackled in Java and other programming languages (like Python, Go, Kotlin, and Scala) — a practical session well-suited for devs who like their threads tamed and their code clean, but also want to see how different programming languages support the same concept.

Whether you're exploring concurrency patterns or want to hang out with people over tech talks, we’d love to see you there!

✔️ Let us know you’re coming—RSVP on Meetup (be sure to include your full name)
📨 or message us directly to reserve your spot!

Warning: You might enjoy writing concurrent code more after this talk! 🙂
