What we learned from building full-stack web applications in F#
Please log in to watch this conference skillscast.
In recent years, there has been a push to promote so-called isomorphic web applications: the same JavaScript code is able to run both on the server and the client. This allows a very fluid and uncluttered style of development. It also helps keep code DRY and provides opportunities for client-server interactions that would otherwise be complex to set up.
However these advantages are not exclusively available in JavaScript. Thanks to its F#-to-JavaScript compiler, WebSharper allows the same benefits combined with the strict typing and terse syntax of F#. It provides a set of abstractions for server-side, client-side and multi-tiered code that greatly enhance modularity and composability. In this session Loïc presents a number of case studies where this style has boosted productivity in his team and enabled them to deliver applications with much less code and in much less time.
