  • Place: Noworking, Youngstorget 3, Oslo (doorbell says "Nordaaker")

Marcus Ramberg invites Oslo.pm to his "Noworking" co-working facility at Nordaaker, where he's going to help us go through all the steps of creating a web application with Mojolicious. Bring your laptop!

We'll be looking at all the steps for creating a proper web application with Mojolicious, including:

  • Making a super-quick prototype with Mojo::Lite
  • How routing and rendering works
  • Web Sockets, and what you can do with it in Mojo
  • How to make use of NoSQL stores like Redis in your app
  • Test-driven development with Mojo::Test
  • Deployment strategies
  • ...and more!

This will be a hands-on evening with Marcus showing us good ways for developing the app, and the rest of us following his example on our own laptops. Jan Henning has offered to help too! :)

To join the fun, please bring the following:

  • Your laptop
  • Installed with Perl v5.14 or newer (We recommend App::perlbrew - http://perlbrew.pl)
  • Your brain and your good humour :)

Hope to see you there!

P.S. if you plan on coming, please drop by our IRC channel #oslo.pm on irc.perl.org and tell us!
