In The Brain of Fredrik Ekholdt: Starting with Play 2.0 and How to Build Non-Blocking Apps
Starting with Play 2.0 and How to Build Non-Blocking Apps
Sick of heavy web application frameworks with endless amounts of boilerplate code?

Play 2.0 combines the ease of Rails with the power of the JVM into a web application framework that makes it fun to do web applications again.

This talk will be for beginners and intermediates of Play alike. The talk has two parts:
- the basics of Play and how to get started
- non-blocking behavior in Play applications

Fredrik Ekholdt is in town delivering Typesafe Fast Track to Play. on September 28th
