Speaker: Dino Esposito An aura of mystery sometimes surrounds DDD and makes it kind of an exoteric thing. While experts insist that everyone should be doing DDD, people in the trenches find it hard and sometimes don’t even see the point of making their life harder because of the DDD guidelines.

The era of the lightweight, transactionally-oriented relational-backed client/server topology seems to be at its zenith. Is this really where we want to be when building enterprise systems?

Speaker: Jon Skeet Immutability rocks, right? When a type is immutable, it’s usually easier to reason about your code, easier to share data safely, and easier to make money ooze from every USB port. That’s the promise, at least. I heard an F# developer say it, so it must be true. Unfortunately, when a languageRead more about Immutability in C#[…]

Speaker: Jon Skeet Don’t you just love all the new features the team has been packing into C#? Perhaps your first thought on hearing about a new version is “Wow, that could really help my code base – I can’t wait to put it into production.” Not me. I think “I wonder what I couldRead more about Abusing C#[…]

Speaker: Adam Granicz WebSharper is a mature, open-source web ecosystem for developing enterprise F# (and now C#!) web applications. It accommodates standards-based web development by building on F#, a powerful functional-first language; robust and sound functional programming abstractions for modeling user interfaces, web forms, safe URLs, and even entire web applications in the type system;Read more about Functional, reactive web abstractions for .NET (300)[…]

Speaker: Daniel Fisher Since more than a decade I have build architectures for distributed and scaling web applications. I’ve learned my lessons in the nosebleed section. I have no complains. I took my knowlegde from experience and so I know what to care about. A few years ago I sumbled accross CQRS. At first IRead more about CQRS: My 42 (300)[…]

Speaker: Michał Dudak   .NET is available on more platforms than ever before. This obviously is great, but comes with a lot of challenges. How do we now write code that can be run on all platforms? How to take advantage of platform-specific features? What are these weird “target framework monikers”? Can I use myRead more about How to .NET All The Things (200)[…]
