As is the case with the much of the rest of the Elixir ecosystem\, there's a proje ct to help make such ambitions a lot more friendly and inviting to work with (http://nerves-project.org/). This month we'll be taking a look at this project\, explore a handful of similar alternative approaches to t he same problem\, and see if we can get some simple distributed Elixir a pplications running and communicating as Nerves apps. \;\n \;\nIf you have any of the supported hardware (referenced below)\, then by all means bring it with you and we'll see if we can get things working on re al hardware. All the organizer's embedded SBCs are Odroid C2's\, which aren't Nerves-compatible\, so we won't be able to supply hardware for th e whole group\, but for those that don't have hardware to deploy to we c an still build QEMU ARM images and run them in an emulated VM environmen t. \;\n \;\n**Supported Hardware:** \;\n \;\nhttps://hexdocs .pm/nerves/targets.html \;\n \;\nFor the newcomers\, the "\;G ames"\; format is designed to create a bit of friendly competition a nd is accessible for all ranges of experience\; beginners and pros alike . \;\n \;\nEarly in this series we'll be focusing mostly on solvi ng problems in a functional paradigm\, and as the series continues over time we'll move more and more toward Elixir's differentiators\; Erlang i nterop\, hygienic macros\, &\; OTP patterns. \;\n \;\nIf all that read like gibberish to you\, don't worry you don't have to know any of that jargon\, and by the time you do everything will already make se nse. Because we'll introduce ideas and concepts in a way that will help you understand those things conceptually before you ever need a weird n ame for them. \;\n \;\nFood and drinks will be provided. \;\n& #13\;\nPlease make sure you come with a computer to work on and have Eli xir pre-installed locally or in a VM and ready to go. \;\n \;\nhtt p://elixir-lang.org/install.html \;\n \;\nSpecial thanks to our f riends at Puppet\, ‘the leader in IT automation’\, for hosting us.\n\nTa gs: elixir\, erlang\, programming\, functional programming\, ruby\, soft ware\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250471356 URL:https://www.meetup.com/elixir-pdx/events/237150092/ SUMMARY:Elixir Games PDX - You're Getting On My Nerves LOCATION:Puppet: 308 SW 2nd Ave Fifth Floor\, Portland OR 97204 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
