Let's meetup and implement an actual Erlang-based server

Details

For our second meetup we'll be looking into how to build an actual server with Erlang.

Stuff we'll cover:

  • Basic syntax
  • Basic functional programming with Erlang
  • Core OTP concepts/patterns (gen_server, applications, ...)
  • How to use the rebar Erlang build tool
  • Expose a simple service using a web API
  • How to do unit testing

The idea is to pick a simple service/API (like a string reversal algorithm) and to show what is needed to implement it in Erlang.

We'll walk through all the required steps and code to build and test it.
