Meta-Programming Madness with the Mixin Type Provider
Featuring Ross McKinlay
F#'s erasing type providers are a ground-breaking feature that (amongst other things) remove the need for a whole lot of boilerplate code which you would otherwise have to write or generate. Does this mean that you never have a need to generate code in F#? Of course it doesn't!...

Type-Driven Development
Featuring Mark Seemann
The F# type system is both stronger and more flexible than the type system in e.g. C#. You can use this to your advantage to rapidly evolve a prototype. In this talk you'll see an example of how to evolve a Finite State Machine that solves a real problem, using the F# type system as a driver....

Expression Oriented Programming with F#
Featuring Robert Pickering
This talk take a deep look at some of the basics of programming: expressions, statements, scope and how we represent data. We’ll look at these concepts to through the lens of a functional programmer to see how this, contrasts to the way an Object Oriented programmer might do things. We’ll look at...
