PROGRESSIVE F# TUTORIALS NYC 18-09-13
Skills Matter is thrilled to announce the return of the Progressive F# Tutorials to New York City on September 18-19th! The Progressive F# Tutorials bring together the leading experts in F# to deliver a range of talks, 4 hour intensive hands-on tutorials and discussions. The Progressive Tutorial format allows attendees to truly deep dive and develop hands-on experience.
Our Experts
We are currently working with Rick Minerich on an exciting programme, featuring both an advanced track and a track for beginners. Alongside Don Syme, the designer and architect of F#, the conference features Tomas Petricek, Phil Trelford, and Miguel de Icaza - you can see the full line-up below!
Beginners Track
Having some trouble getting a handle on F# or just functional programming in general? Work through our beginner track and start from the basics. You can be confident that after two days of full time functional immersion you'll have some seriously improved skills. No prior F# experience is required whatsoever.
Meaty Track
Wishing for more meaty F# content? Our advanced track will dive deep into F# features, explore how to solve difficult problems using functional programming, and perhaps even glimpse the nature of functional programming itself. This is a rare opportunity to push yourself and learn deeply about the language you've already come to love.
More information will follow soon! To stay up to date on our progress, follow #progfsharpnyc on twitter...
