How to Julia

There are many passionate and curious people about Julia in the Eindhoven region but sometimes we feel alone and don't know each other. This meetup will aim to bring us together by having technical talks for technical people... no sales, no marketing, no recruiting ... just technical talks with some code. The theme for this meetup is How to Julia, as we will have a series of speakers sharing their journey in adopting Julia, from first projects to help others avoid mistakes, and ending with insight into what it takes to document work. If this sounds interesting sign-up and bring your friends.

And yes, there will be some free food and drinks.

Agenda:
17:30 - Doors Open (let's network a little before the event)
18:00 - Welcome and introduction
18:10 - Accessible Computing with Pluto Past and Future - Fons van der Plas (Co-creator of Pluto)
18:45 - Free Dinner
19:30 - From Begin to Julian with VS Code - Matthijs Cox (ASML)
20:00 - Quarto and package documentation – Patrick Almeyer (TU/Delft)
20:30 – Networking and drinks

Looking forward to seeing you there.

Pluto is a new programming environment for Julia, designed to teach Julia in an online classroom. In his talk, Fons will take you behind the scenes of Pluto, showing the secrets behind reactivity, reproduciblity and accesibility.
We also discuss some potential futures for Pluto: interactive publishing, a mixed Julia-JavaScript environment, generating Web APIs instantly, AI-generated plots, and more!
Also, free Pluto stickers!
