Erlang Screencast Goodness

Posted: July 28th, 2008 | Author: kevin | Filed under: Erlang, Screencast | View Comments

The next episode in my series is done and should be available in the next 24 hours. The resident editing wizard at Pragmatic Studios, aka Mike Clark, has worked his magic again and made me look way more professional than I ever expected.

The episode runs a little long with a total run time of about 45 minutes. It covers:

  • Downloading, building, and installing Mochiweb
  • Using Mochiweb to build a simple web application
  • Erlang’s experimental support for parameterized modules
  • Adding REST-style endpoints to the chat system developed in previous episodes

And because I felt a little bored today, I’ve made another attempt at making my Configuring Emacs for Erlang screencast viewable for a wider audience. You can download the Ogg encoded version of the video here. I tested it with the VLC player on OS X 10.5.4 and a recent Fedora 9 install so I’m hopeful more people will be able to view it.

    Not the most appropriate place, but I couldn't find your email or post to the entry that this corresponds with. Sorry.

    If you like shoegaze, I thought you may want to check out the Depreciate Guild @ http://www.inhergentlejaws.com/. You can download their entire cd from that website and it is quite good.

    Also, wanted to let you know that I've been watching your Erlang pragmatic programmer screencasts and really enjoy them. Keep up the good work!
