🌟 This webinar was recorded as part of preparation for Code BEAM America 2024. https://codebeamamerica.com 🌟 Vanessa Lee: An Elixir of Empathy: Using Livebook to Empower & Engage Livebook is an exciting interactive and collaborative code notebook. It offers a rich toolset for engineers to build cross-team empathy by empowering and engaging others as users and consumers of our code and data. Fostering empathy across teams and departments is paramount. This talk will showcase how Livebook can be a tool to empower and engage technical and non-technical collaborators. It can help us provide enhanced troubleshooting and understanding of our software. Livebook lets us easily visualize data, document applications interactively, give users inactive UI elements, and integrate widely from HuggingFace to Nerves to Snowflake. We will explore real-world examples of how Livebook has strengthened cross-team communication and empowered non-technical team members in times of limited engineering resources. Tyler Young: Elixir as a One-Person Stack for Building a Software Startup There’s a lot of excitement in the developer community around the idea of a “one-person” framework—a platform on which to build a software service where a single person can gain enough leverage to build the complete application. In this talk, Tyler will share: How Elixir, Phoenix, and LiveView deliver on this promise for the startup he's building How the benefits of Elixir don’t just stop at the framework level, but expand to be a complete one-person stack The frameworks, libraries, and tools he combines for maximum effectiveness as a solo developer Why he believes Elixir is the best choice for pragmatic software-as-a-service founders About Code BEAM America 2024 7-8 March, San Francisco and Online Code BEAM America is a conference focused on Erlang and Elixir ecosystem, 2 days of talks and networking with other BEAM enthusiasts.
