The Pesto Framework
Stc
Date: 2010-04-29 Time: 11:00 Room: [[http://www.cs.uu.nl/docs/reach/bbl.php][BBL]] [[http://www.cs.uu.nl/info/plan/bbl.php][023]] ----+++++ Speaker: Chris Eidhof ----+++++ Title: The Pesto Framework ----+++++ Abstract In this talk we will discuss the Pesto Framework, a framework to build web applications in Haskell. Web programming is a field that has been dominated by dynamic languages, because of their perceived expressivity, meta-programming abilities and flexibility. In this talk, we will show that the statically typed programming language Haskell forms a good basis to build a web development framework. We will see how generic programming, type-level programming, lenses and control-flow abstraction all help in making web programs shorter, simpler and type-safe. The Pesto framework consists of multiple ingredients: a library for data modeling, a library for control-flow and a library for building user interfaces. ----+++++ Slides Slides are available on [[http://www.slideshare.net/chriseidhof/web-programming-in-haskell][slideshare]] -- Main.ChrisEidhof - 15 Apr 2010
