Watch videos from the talks

An Epic One-Day Erlang Conference in Washington, DC

New to Erlang? Learn the basics during the morning Erlang Essentials bootcamp. Find out how a battle-tested, functional programming language like Erlang, based on a message-passing concurrency model, can help you build highly reliable server systems, and why it should be in your programmer's toolkit.

But, what if you are an experienced erlang developer? We haven't forgotten you! This year, you will enjoy hands-on workshops in the morning that demonstrates some of the cutting-edge capabilities of Erlang.

In the afternoon, you will be treated to presentations by some of the most expert Erlanguatans around, on how they are each using Erlang in the real world to solve real problems.

So, come to ErlangDC 2013. Meet fellow DC-area Erlang enthusiasts at breakfast and lunch. Learn advanced Erlang techniques in the afternoon tech talks. Swap Erlang war stories and make lifelong friends over pints at the post-conference Happy Hour.

It will be reliably awesome. Just like Erlang.
