Title : How (and why) I implemented the MSLUG website in Erlang
Abstract:
In this talk, I will present how I implemented the MSLUG website in Erlang.
We will see how, in about 1K lines of Erlang code, one can implement a
high-performance, fully-dynamic website with RSS feeds, database support,
and more. The talk will cover the basic aspects of Erlang (its syntax, the
read-eval-print loop, etc.) as well as more advanced features: Mnesia, the
concurrent distributed database, the high performance web server Yaws, and
OTP.
Note that this will be a very informal meeting, with lots of code. The goal
is to show why I consider Erlang to be mostly a member of the Lisp family,
even with its Prolog-like syntax ;-)
