Membrane Framework - the true story of (...) - Marcin Lewandowski | ElixirConf EU Virtual 2020
This video was recorded at ElixirConf EU Virtual 2020 - https://www.elixirconf.eu/ More great virtual tech conferences - https://codesync.global --- Membrane Framework - the true story of handling multimedia in Elixir by Marcin Lewandowski ABSTRACT Media processing has never been a piece of cake - a large amount of data, tons of different formats, protocols and standards, growing latency and quality requirements. In this talk, we’ll introduce you to the world of media streaming via Membrane Framework - our solution for dealing with multimedia without pain. The framework provides a set of so-called elements, which are composable blocks implementing different multimedia processing operations. The talk will be based on the real use cases of the framework and will explain - what are use cases for such a framework - what are the benefits of using such a framework in comparison to other solutions, - what is the roadmap for the framework, especially in terms of supporting WebRTC. --- THE SPEAKER - Marcin Lewandowski He founded his first IT company when he was still in high school. A graduate of Human-Computer Interaction at Jagiellonian University in Poland. He was bouncing between media and IT industries for quite a while. Founded a cult local FM radio station, then RadioKit, a SaaS startup aiming at building software for the media industry and then smoothly migrated into multimedia. Currently a partner at Software Mansion - a fast-growing software agency serving mostly US startups. --- ElixirConf EU Website: https://www.elixirconf.eu/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ElixirConfEU

Types and Erlang: from Dialyzer to(...) - Charlotte Lorelei De Oliveira | ElixirConfEU V 2020
This video was recorded at ElixirConf EU Virtual 2020 - https://www.elixirconf.eu/ More great virtual tech conferences - https://codesync.global --- Types and Erlang from Dialyzer to session types by Charlotte Lorelei De Oliveira ABSTRACT Considering Erlang is widely known by its focus on fault-tolerance and, by consequence, guarantees of reliability, there have been several attempts to improve Erlang programs by proving their correctness with type systems but such attempts have failed. This talk proposes to explain what is a type system, why attempts to type strictly Erlang have failed and how the theory of Session Types might prove to be a way to achieve correctness in environments like Erlang's. --- THE SPEAKER - Charlotte Lorelei De Oliveira Charlotte asks too many “whys” and “hows”, this got them to become someone who thinks too much on how to improve things for everybody. --- ElixirConf EU Website: https://www.elixirconf.eu/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ElixirConfEU

Building a solar powered weather station with Nerves | John Oxford | ElixirConfEU V 2020
This video was recorded at ElixirConf EU Virtual 2020 - https://www.elixirconf.eu/ Building a solar powered weather station with Nerves | John Oxford - Software Engineer at PowerSecure ABSTRACT If you aren’t familiar with the Nerves tooling system, or haven’t used it yet, then this talk will show you how easy it is to write Elixir code for your tiny Linux powered devices (Raspberry Pi, Beaglebone). We’ll briefly hear about the GPIO and I2C protocol and how you write code to program with them using the Elixir Circuits Libraries. Finally we’ll see how easy it is to build a solar panel to charge a battery to keep a Nerves powered system running 24/7. • Follow us on social: Twitter: https://twitter.com/ElixirConfEU LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/27159258 • Looking for a unique learning experience?

Using Elixir and WhatsApp to Response COVID-19 | Simon de Haan | ElixirConf EU Virtual 2020
This video was recorded at ElixirConf EU Virtual 2020 - https://www.elixirconf.eu/ Using Elixir and WhatsApp to response COVID-19 | Simon de Haan - Co founder and CTO @ Turn.io ABSTRACT The inside story of how the World Health Organisation’s WhatsApp COVID-19 hotline service was launched in 5 days time using Elixir. Turn.io has a long history of using chat to improve lives. We have our roots in the SMS and USSD mobile messaging space and since 2017 have been at the forefront of scaling these services using WhatsApp in emerging markets. At the beginning of March 2020 we launched the world’s first WhatsApp based COVID-19 response for the South African Ministry of Health. The service was designed and launched within a week. It scaled, prior to any kind of public launch, to 450K unique users on the first day and has since grown to serve to over 7.5 million people in South Africa and is core to the national government’s ongoing COVID-19 related communication and support strategies. While South Africa was still launching, we were also preparing for the launch of the World Health Organisation’s global WhatsApp service in partnership with Praekelt.org, WhatsApp, Amazon Web Services, and the Be Healthy Be Mobile team at the World Health Organisation. Within the space of 5 days, the WHO service was designed, deployed, stress tested, and launched. Within the first 48 hours the service went to serve over 10 million people with accurate information on the COVID-19 pandemic. Instantly becoming the biggest deployment of the WhatsApp Business API at launch. We’d like to tell the story of the people, the code, the tools, and the processes that made this a once in a life time public health opportunity in a global time of crisis. We’ll cover the lessons learned, the challenges, the successes, and the failures. • Follow us on social: Twitter: https://twitter.com/ElixirConfEU LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/27159258 • Looking for a unique learning experience?

Keynote: Building an emergency software - Linda Achieng Otieno, Sigu Magwa | ElixirConf EU X 2020
This video was recorded at ElixirConf EU Virtual 2020 - https://www.elixirconf.eu/ More great virtual tech conferences - https://codesync.global --- Building an emergency software with Phoenix & Elixir by Linda Achieng Otieno and Sigu Magwa ABSTRACT Nailinda is a medical emergency software in Kenya that does not require the internet to send and receive messages and emergency requests. We use USSD to communicate, capture the request, process it and send the message to the receiver or give a response to the sender - it all depends on the content of the message. The receiver is also prompted to give a response, which we capture, process and send back to the initial sender. All this has been built with Phoenix and Elixir, we have used APIs to enable the capturing of the USSD responses. --- THE SPEAKER - Linda Achieng Otieno and Sigu Magwa Linda is a Ruby and Elixir software developer. She actively works with both languages, Ruby for her official job and Elixir for the project Nailinda. She has been actively writing code for 3yrs now. She is also a mum to a cheeky 2yrs old. Sigu is the Founder and CTO at Podii - a software company based in Kisumu Kenya. Previously worked remotely as a coach and software developer at the Swedish based company Craft Academy. He has been working with Ruby for a while but now deeply in love and recently got married to Elixir. A founding member of the elixir community in Kenya --- ElixirConf EU Website: https://www.elixirconf.eu/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ElixirConfEU
