May 19, 2018. Note: If you purchased a training ticket and want to attend the conference, you must also purchase this ticket for conference admission.

May 18, 2018: In this day-long workshop, you'll be introduced to Nerves, the Elixir framework for embedded applications. You'll build and run your code on hardware provided by your trainers, developers with experience using Nerves in a real-world application. Training does _not_ include admission to the conference. If you would like to attend the conference, you will need to purchase a conference ticket as well.

May 18, 2018: Learning to build solutions on top of immutable data structures requires a new way of thinking, and we've designed our workshop to get you thinking that way quickly. The course is not for complete beginners. You should be comfortable programming in some language, but what language is unimportant. People whose proficiency lies outside the functional paradigm will probably get the most out of the course, but functional programmers who are new to Elixir will find the course to be a useful survey of the main features of the Elixir ecosystem. Training does _not_ include admission to the conference. If you would like to attend the conference, you will need to purchase a conference ticket as well.

May 18, 2018: In this training, we want to explore the tools available for parallel computation, alongside their use cases and their strength and weaknesses. We will start from the simplest approach of manually spawning processes, move on to tasks and Task.async_stream, and finally work with GenStage and Flow. This tutorial is aimed for people that are familiar with Elixir syntax and with the "functional" and data-related part of Elixir (data types, modules, functions). Knowledge about processes is welcome, but we are prepared to introduce concurrency in Elixir in case the audience is not strong on the area. Training does _not_ include admission to the conference.
