Summary

Bodil Stokke demos building a complete video game from nothing in the span of a conference talk using functional reactive programming.

Bio

Bodil Stokke is a compulsive conference speaker in the fields of functional programming and Internet technologies, and is a co-organizer of multiple developer conferences in Scandinavia and the UK, mostly because she’s still learning how to stop. She is a prolific contributor to the Free Software community, and has recently taken up designing new programming languages as a hobby.

About the conference

Software is Changing the World. QCon empowers software development by facilitating the spread of knowledge and innovation in the developer community. A practitioner-driven conference, QCon is designed for technical team leads, architects, engineering directors, and project managers who influence innovation in their teams.

    Thank you! That was fun to watch and I've picked up a lot about Rx.

    One remark: using Object.create() to create a "copy" of objects coming from an unbounded stream will produce an unbounded prototype chain.

    And what's the name of the REPL? I've seen that dog symbol once but I cannot remember.
