Attendee Survey

"I do data engineering with Scala, heavily applying functional programming. I would like to learn more about theoretical CS concepts applicable in the real world to make better software."

"Comparing functional web frameworks across languages, building apps in a functional language, and practical functional programming."

"Exploration of next FP language concepts like dependent types, generic programming and proof solving."

"Love to talk about FP vs OOP and how OOP languages are converging on FP in some ways. Also love to touch base on microservices in FP."

"Haskell, FP paradigms, application development in FP languages."

"I'd like more in-depth Elm and other related areas. I'm interested in using Haskell for backend work as well."

"More understanding of functional programming concepts in general. I've been introduced via Elm and started learning Haskell."

"Interested in either working learning more formal methods for improving code quality or maybe hacking on LLVM stuff in Haskell."

"Networked servers, event sourcing, Elm, Haskell, databases, uni-directional data flow, functional architecture. I can share about event sourcing."

"Elm, Haskell, FP game dev, concurrency. I can share quite a bit about Elm."

"I've been writing Elm recently and have really enjoyed the functional paradigm. I'm hoping to learn more here as well as meet other functional programmers."

"Functional programming has amazed me with its efficiency and power. I have been working recently in Elm and look forward to working with other local programmers to learn more."

"My coworker pointed me at Elm and I'd love to learn more about functional application development. I need to learn the ropes of FP in general."

"I am just learning about lambdas, but I am so excited to be surrounded by people who are enamored by it!"

"Open source strategies. Lean, robust products."

"I see FP as having so much potential to improve our interactions with technology, both as a developer and in the world in general. I'd like to understand how and when to apply these techniques to improve lives, and how to spread the ideas to others. I'm particularly interested in how to evolve systems safely, from the smallest refactoring to an entire distributed system."

"Learn me a Haskell. And Scala Cats."

"Excited to learn more Elm, PureScript, or other FP greatness."

"I am a costumer, so I'm super interested in furthering knowledge of modeling transformations. Rigging lights within that can be programed for different things, connecting little servos to create moving parts within a costume, special effects, etc."

"I'm learning Haskell. I want to get comfortable with functional programming in general and specifically Haskell. Current goal is to be able to write a simple parser."

"I'd like to get a more fundamental understanding of Haskell and/or F#. Ideally this would be some work with web apps as well as console applications.Additionally, I'd like to enhance my understanding of functional programming so I can better apply it to my day to day work in C++ and C#."
