Community for F# / Experience report on FPish - Everything Functional

Please RSVP for instructions on how to join the event.

Description

In this talk, I will give an experience report on implementing FPish, a new community site for functional programmers; the issues we encountered; and the way we solved some of these challenges. FPish is implemented entirely in F# as a massive WebSharper sitelet, with heavy use of functional abstractions such as formlets and HTML combinators, and as such it is the largest web application of its kind. I will also give a brief survey of various FPish features and show how you can use FPish on a daily basis to benefit your FP language community.

The jQuery Mobile sample on the WebSharper site has been out for quite some time now, but it fails to mention an important detail on how to run it standalone. Indeed, copying it straight into a new WebSharper ASP.NET project produces an empty page (which [...]
